Supposedly not being put into service after 28 truck taking a dump because of defective parts from what I hear. the 5 ALF tillers that where recently delivered have already been OOS many different times for various reasons. The companies that are getting the new ALFS over the years dont like them and would rather keep there old apparatus rather than the ALFS. The shop is full of ALFS OOS waiting for repairs I think there are more 200 series (SPARES) on the street than front line pieces. When is the PFD going to give up buying ALFS after all the problems. Hopefully 28s old Seagrave didnt go to far. Why not buy Seagraves again the FF seem to like them even if they are 12 years old or more they seem to be OOS less than the new ALFS>[/quote]
