Rolla Street Department workers Tim Feeler, left, and Kyle Pinkston stand with two new trucks the city recently purchased for the department. The white Chevrolet 3500 1-ton is a utility truck that Feeler, a foreman, will drive. The larger truck, an International, is a 54,000-pound tandem-axle dump truck capable of hauling 15-tons of materials. It is rigged with a snow plow and a spreader in the rear. Feeler, a 20-year employee of the Street Department, joked this is the first new truck he’s had in his tenure. Pinkston is a traffic technician. The trucks cost $29,498 and $132,498 respectively.
