    The wife and I took a drive last Sunday. We passed an old fire truck sitting in a side yard with weeds growing all around it. Went by too fast to see what kind it was. Why, is someone looking to buy one?

    I gottcha. Not the place I was thinking of. The Red Horse is not far from the first exit, past the pilot on the old highway.
    They have all manner of neat old signage and memorabilia.

    Wow. I never knew. I may be wrong, but it looks like it's on the old US10 right-of-way. Kind of funny how you miss these old places just because you're a 1/4 mile away as the crow flies, doing 70+ MPH as you go by.

    I'd love to have the Gladiator pickup. Label it for the Tonka Fire Department.

    Nice Hudson? Sure looks like one. Could be a Packard. And the pumper has a weird headlight and grille setup, but looks like a Mack.

    It's funny how old the "new" truck looks now.
