1. Your super secret truck launch is supposed to be in Dec. 2015, if I recall correctly from one of your previous posting. So a spec sheet should be coming forth so you can share this new "silver" bullet with the world on FAC.

2. I understand the changes of Lance-Boss since I had my last dealings with Neville the Devil in 1981 or 80. His company eventually died the death of a ragged doll. Of course, he never claimed any thing about fuel economy as he didn't know what transmission he was going to put in a unit next week. We had a very good customer that bought 3 of the same model side loaders , within 1 year. We (Allis-Chalmers) badged them a S 270 (27K lb lift capacity) All 3 per delivered with different trannys - 2 were the same make but different models & the other was a different make - the names British Twin Disc & Brockhouse is ringing my bell. Oh, we had no prior announcement of these changes plus that equaled no service parts on this side of the pond. As Gomer Pyle used to say "Surprise, Surprise". Maybe he was still mad about loosing the war fought over here.

Fact of the week
The dot-com bubble, a period of large and rapid investments in internet-based companies, peaked in 2000 and saw the Nasdaq Composite index rise by 579%. Then the bubble imploded. As the value of tech stocks plummeted, cash-strapped internet start-ups became worthless and collapsed.
