Typical. When asking at a station about a old piece the reply usually goes something like this: "Oh yea, that engine was sold to a FD in West Virginia or maybe it was Georgia, and it definitly was a 1999, but could have been a 1992. And are you sure it was a International? I thought is was a Ford."

Haha, how true. I couldn't even guess how many times I've heard a story similar to that. What really gets me is you ask someone about their tank size on the truck and they will say 1250 when clearly its a much smaller 750-gallon or 500-gallon tank.
