ACTION REQUESTED:
Approve Request for Purchase for one 2024 2500HD Truck from Rosedale Chevrolet, equipment from Aspen, Lighting form Guardian, and Striping from Grafix for $77,665.
INTRODUCTION:
Rosedale Cheverolet will provide the 2500HD truck, and the equipment will be provided by Aspen, Guardian, and Grafix. This is a replacement for unit #27-386. The vehicle has outlived its useful life and needs replacement. It is switching from a 1-ton to a 3/4-ton vehicle to comply with the City's Green Fleet Policy.
Our new equipment replacement scoring methodology uses six performance and cost variables including age, usage, type of service, condition, repair costs and reliability. Replacement qualification scores are 23 for all sedans and light trucks and 28 for heavy duty vehicles and off-road equipment whose gross weight rating exceeds 10,500. The higher the score, the higher the need to replace the vehicle. In other words, we will not replace a heavy-duty vehicle that does not have a minimum score of 28. This vehicle is considered heavy-duty with a score of 29. |
