The production of the Cummins engine, model L9, which Toronto Fire Services currently uses in Pumper / Rescue apparatus, is being discontinued by the end of 2025 and suppliers are already seeing a decline in the availability of this engine as heavy truck manufacturers across North America are buying up large blocks in expectation of the discontinuation. Toronto Fire Services is requesting a non-competitive contract of fire apparatus using the remaining supply of Cummins L9 engines which Dependable Emergency Vehicles, a division of Dependable Truck and Tank Ltd.'s supplier still has available for the next few months, this will prevent delays in Toronto Fire Services' life cycle management program to ensure operational vehicles.
