Tony-

Looks like you faired better with the owner than I did. He told me $1500.00
each for them. I may be willing to chip in for one of those trucks....and I
may know of someone else that would want one. I thought that the XM-211,
was the best also of the three. If you are intertested. I am sorry that I
did not hget back to you last saturday, but I did call last SUnday. I know
of another truck...... I really want this one, but it looks like I will not
be able to buy for sometime and I would prefer it went to a military
home....than a commercial one.

I believe that it is a M-211....... it's one of the three from the Empire
Fire Dept Auction about a year or so ago. It runs.....has been modifed
slightly (very slightly)...the current owner wants somthing like $2500 for
it. If you want to look at it tell me and I will tell where it is.
