n <br /> ,. c AGENDA ATTACHMENT VIIf <br /> BIDS FOR SMALL. TRUCKS <br /> I am list na for vour reference a summary of bidsifor small trucks <br /> reported at v ur last meetinu. <br /> The staff still feels the best overall buy shown on this list is, the <br /> Toyota even tough it is not the low bid. It has proven more difficult <br /> to document t is position than we had anticipated however. The magazine <br /> Consumer Re opt has not rated small trucks anytime recently. We find <br /> company suppl ed literature relatively meaningless as it deals mostly <br /> with fri vol ou items. The most significant item relating to vehicle <br /> quality we have uncovered is the December 1977 value of 1977 Toyotas and <br /> Couriers as eported in the NADA publication of vehicle resale values. <br /> This report i dicated: <br /> CURRENT MARKET VALUE AS A PERCENT OF ORIGINAL COST <br /> YEAR TOYOTA COURIERS <br /> 1976 89.8 71.8 <br /> 1975 76.8 58.3 <br /> 1974 51 .4 47.2 <br /> 1973 49.7 35.6 <br /> 1972 40.1 27.6 <br /> We have n t been able to locate any life cycle cost information <br /> relating to o erall operational cost of these vehicles. <br /> • AGENDA ATTACHMENT VIII <br /> PLATS FOR CONSIDERATION <br /> A.
