Since we are able to purchase quints and rescue engines initially with the station, I would love to see the same be true of pumper tankers since they are also engine combination units.
Pumper Tankers

It’s an idea but not a priority. Also, I doubt fire stations’ only unit there is a pumper tanker. The reason why those units are standard is because some stations may just have that unit. And plus, if there is a fire station with just a pumper tanker get a Station with a standard engine. The engine comes 100% free of cost with the station, if you get a rescue engine or quint as default it adds an extra 19k to your Station price (price of vehicle) so you would lose that money. Otherwise, I don’t see why you would need this feature.

Actually several stations in the northern part of the state here only have a pumper tanker, I also would like to see them able to be purchased with station build. I use the pumper tankers in my larger cities as the single engine company stations, and I make my multi unit stations with rescue engines.

In Vermont, I have several stations that only have 3 pumpers. This is a quality of life feature that would also benefit consistency of the combo vehicles being able to be purchased at station construction. Besides - this should be a super easy fix. The base code is already in the game to allow this to happen with Quints and Rescue Engines. Not creating the consistency is just lazy developing.

no, it really is not necessary. I see your point but there are just not many stations like that. It’s not really worth developing.
and plus, all you have to do is delete a regular engine as I said and put in a pumpertanker. If it was build in it’s the same price anyways. The price of the vehicle is added into the station price.

WinWin - I respectfully disagree. This is a great quality of life feature that should be exceptionally easy to implement. There really isn't an excuse to keep these inconsistencies and it is sensibly in line with what has already been implemented.

While Type-1 and 2 Engines are Free, there is a 5,000 Credit savings when building a Fire Station with a Rescue-Pumper or a Quint. Those two units are 14,000 when purchased with the Fire Station as opposed to 19,000 when purchased later.

Nice find. I never looked closely and assumed that was how it works. Good to know.

And can also build a station with a RE, switch the RE with a regular T1 from another station and get refund your station.
We have the same on the FR.
