Does Amenia still hae this Oren? And any idea as to its year and if they acquired it new? The reason I ask is that one of our companies had one very similar purchased in 1957 with Oren saying that they didn't make too many closed cabs that year. I will also be checking further. Thanks.

Donno where this is from, but it hangs out on RT 22 in Dutchess County.
This little Mercedes-Benz Unimog U404S comes from Germany. It is one of several small Pumper Tanker from German Civil Defense. The body was built after the same specs from vaious companies. It has a small 800 l/min pump and can carry 800l water. There was room for 3 firefighters, 2 in the front and one at the "officiers side" in the body.

Rich, I assume they or one of their members owns it, as I saw in someone's driveway when I went down there for this parade back in 2003. I missed their parade this year so I donno for sure. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='<_<' />

When I think Mack CF's Buffalo fire comes to mind, the Long Island/NYC area, New Jersey, and PA come to mind. It's great to see this old horse is still running strong and looks great! Here's a Mack CF from the host company of the Westren New York firemans convention Niagara Active, engine 9. If anyone has more info on this truck, greatly appreciated! This truck was refurbbed at my work RD Murray at some point.
