Our new Contender chassis is in production. This past week the cab passed thru the cab assembly area where interior components were added. The chassis frame rails were bolted together and moved to the assembly line where the engine & transmission were set in place. Early next week the cab will be set onto the frame assembly. Then it will go thru the testing process before it is shipped to the Contender plant.

Yesterday's storms dumped torrential rains and toppled numerous trees, blocked roadways, cut off electricity, phone and cable service, and damaged township roads.

Fire department personnel cut fallen trees, placed traffic devices, stayed with fallen wires and assisted residents for several hours on Saturday and early Sunday morning. Their efforts came amid more traditional calls for service such as a house fire and extrication at a traffic accident scene.
