Good Will Fire Company

the 2008 Ford F 250 is still in the process of being constructed , we had the truck lettered and radios, lights installed and are currently working with Martin Assocaites with t he skid unit process, we orginally went with Custom Fiberglass but due to financial problems with CFP we are working with Bill Martin with another company to build the Skid Unit for the truck, We are hoping to have this problem resolved within the next few weeks and have the unit built and installed by the end of the year. Currently we are using the truck as an Utility vehicle until we get the skid unit installed and have our members train on the operationsa of this unit.

The 2008 Ford F-250 has been trimmed in green and is schedueled to have the lights, sirens, radios installed 7-30-09 and the firefighting skid package is being built by Custom Fiberglas Products and should be arriving the wwek of August 17, 2009. This unit will supplement the engine on calls and also handle the miscellaneous calls, such as wire down, trash, brush, etc.

We are expecting to have this unit in service in the near future once we train and equip tis unit.
