Freightliner bought what was left of American LaFrance in 1995 and
began to rebuild the fire truck manufacturing company. The
American LaFrance Eagle chassis was introduced in 1996 and has been
produced, along with other apparatus on custom and commercial
chassis since. American LaFrance has
always been a part of the American fire service and at this time
looks like it will continue to be for years to come. |
