Charleston SPAAMFAA Winter Meet

Charlie; Macungie is featuring fire apparatus this year. Time to bring the Mack back home.

We had a Q&A with Harvey Eckart, Walt McCall, and Tom Herman at he SPAAMFAA meet last night. Always fun to hear Harvey speak. A lot of Mack discussion as well as much about ALF's demise.

Some fun facts from last night: The last open cab made in the US was delivered by ALF in 1982. The last Mack built MB fire truck has been scrapped. The last Mack built CF is in a collector's hands. The last CF chassis is still owned by Yonkers, NY; disposition unknown.

Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

Good thing you guys are in Charleston this week. I was in Charleston last week and they had an

ice storm that basically shut down the city. The Ravanel (the BIG one) and the Holt bridges were

shut down for several days. Have a good meeting; talking Mack fire apparatus with Harvey must

have been fun.
