Fire Police to get "new" truck

The 1998 Ford F-450 from York Area United Fire Police

Columbia Borough Fire Police will have a "new" truck to provide service to the borough. The truck, actually a "pre-owned," will be purchased from York Area United Fire Police Station 89 for $13,000. After a brief recess to inspect the vehicle, Columbia Borough Council voted last night to loan the Fire Police $8,000 to enable completion of the sale. The vehicle is a 1998 Ford F-450.  Small modifications, such as lettering, will need to be made. Fire Police Captain Mike Rhodes intends to transfer anything usable from the old vehicle before putting it up for sale. 

Borough Council members inspect the truck.

I wonder what interest rate the borough offers on vehicle loans? Have to check the next time I buy a truck.
