I have no doubt he will run. His platform will be the same liberal BS that the dems have been running (and losing!) on, except he will want to tax it even more. By 2028, voting will be restricted to qualified US Citizens only. I am not concerned about him!

Engine 11, Hamlet, NC 1973 Mack CF685F12 1250/500 #1551

I recently spent almost two weeks in North Carolina, finding two more Mack fire apparatus to add here. Former Engine 7, Hamlet, NC 1968 Mack C-95F 1000/500 #1629

We trailered it from the barn where it has been stored to the fire station, after we removed a bird's next from one of the hard suctions. It has just over 27k miles on it and just over 1100 hours on the pump. The tires are the same ones that were on it when it left in 1986, so they are high on the list for replacement, possibly by the end of the week. I hosed it off yesterday afternoon, but it needs a thorough scrubbing. The pressure washer at the station is broken and the regular hose didn't have a nozzle, so I had to use my thumb..... So glad that nothing has changed since I retired!

B85F-1338, delivered to College Park, GA in 1958. It served until 1986 and became a parade apparatus for American Legion Post 50 in College Park. Post 50 relocated to Peachtree City, GA about 10-12 years ago. Today, the Mack came home to the College Park Fire Department for good!

I filled up today in Greenville, NC for $2.56/gal. The place in Durham that was $3.03/gal is now $2.94/gal. Same company!

I don't think it's just the price of gas, it's the gas taxes certain States are adding to it. When I left Georgia on Sunday, gas was $2.89/gal. I filled up in South Carolina for $2.69. I'm currently in Durham, NC and the gas is $3.01. The same place was $3.03 yesterday.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

In my 65 years, I have known one Frenchman. It's probably his........

US? Is this the same "us" as the "we" who were recently "doomed"? Again, I ask, who is us? Don't speak for me, I am neither owned nor doomed. My life is good and I am happy and content with the way things are going.

Most of them didn't start it, they just got sucked into it.........

Even more disgusting is the US Citizens who allowed this to happen (AKA the left, liberals, democrats) are the ones fighting the hardest to keep them here!

Yukon Jack - He and I go way back!

I don't find this too unexpected. A buddy of mine lives near that factory and he tells me that there are parking lots all around the area full of brand new Mack trucks they can't sell. It has been that way for the past couple years.
