That's when a firefighter found a 1992 Seagrave ladder truck on eBay. Calls to the manufacturer and the Cincinnati Fire Department, the previous owner, convinced officials that it was the right choice. The truck needed a new motor and a full renovation. But officials said that when it's delivered in January, the company will be getting a like-new machine for less than $250,000.
