We have what is called an 85-foot ladder truck. It cost $565,000 new. We have two 4-story buildings to protect, one hotel, and one school. The angle of the ladder, and the lay of the land, require the 85-foot length.

When people bitched at the cost, we asked them what their kid's life would be worth, if the fire hapened in the 4-story school building.

They saw our point, then.
