> I live next door to a city firehouse, their “new” pumper is an 8 year old, $800k (new) truck that saw 70-80 calls a month. It’s new owner doubled the mileage in 90 days.

What does this mean to imply? They bought an old truck, gently used, and then used it a lot more...

Is the new mileage because they need to use it? Is that bad? Is 800k a lot for a fire truck?

I believe they're implying that a volunteer department had a very high end truck and didn't really use it much, and it was later inherited by a non-volunteer department.
