FDIC 2017

[Bryce]

All of this chaos seems to prove once again that fire apparatus manufacturing is not a particularly stable long term industry, with a few notable exceptions.  It sort of reminds me of the airline business, which constantly has new players coming in while old ones merge or go away.  For an industry that you would think would have some measure of stability, considering it largely relies on tax revenues (which will never dry up entirely) for its funding, it seems to be in a perpetual state of flux.
