In 1981 the College maintained a fleet of 16 vehicles: five vans, four Chevettes, one Granada, two Fairmonts, two pick-ups, a dump truck and a flat-bed truck.  The vehicles were all Chevrolets or Fords.  Physical Plant workers also used four three-seat golf carts to travel around campus.  The carts ran on rechargeable batteries and cost 50 cents per day to operate.
