This forum is for collectors of emergency vehicle models to discuss any aspect of the industry. Feel free to post comments on current releases, future models, items for sale/trade, or items wanted.
As a longtime member of this Board I tend to agree that maybe now is the time
to say goodbye. By some miracle if you decide to keep it going I will do my
best to check it daily as I have done for years. Now that the trouble makers the A and A guys are gone would be a good time to rejuvenate it, but,
with our economy the way it is which in my opinion THE RIGHT is responsible
for perhaps a good political battle would be good for us, who knows?? However thanks Jeff for using your money and time to keep this board alive.

Just want to give a little input from a somewhat newbie.
I've been bashing for a short while(couple of years) And this site has been a big help as to locating parts and trucks that I can afford instead of rip off bay. I understand that stats are low and now its becoming kind of a thing of the past but as a disabled vet its been a life line for me. Just my thoughts
Thanks for all

Just a sign of the times in our modern world. Emergency vehicle collectibles have dropped off in availability substantially in the past few years( & in many cases, what is out there is back to the inaccurate toy days), most middle class folks have to work too much to make ends meet these days to have "play money," and "internet play time" is down as well. While I never like seeing a good site go away, it would be understandable.
Jeff,
It's nice to see some comments again. But I guess I have to agree with some of the statements. The hobby has really suffered lately. Most of the big name vendors are gone, sales are down and so no one is really follwoing what is going on like they used to. I guess we can blame a lot on the economy. I know that I haven't made any major purchases for several years due to the higher costs and shortage of funds. I would hate to see the board go but I can also understand not investing a lot on money to keep it alive if its not being supported.
