South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I have, that this is nice.. huge, but nice! It'll be great for them to run on I85. We got a Dodge 5500 chassis that we're going to put a rescue body on the rear of that will hold water, tools, and extrication equipment.
The same company that built Attack 17, Fouts Bros, is going to build ours

 

I am planning to go- goal is to be there 12:30pm-1 or so on Saturday. Will be coming from a week of sleeping outside at scout camp. Many are going, should be a blast!

Will need to drink some beers and eat good meats!

 

I’ll keep ya updated. John sucks at managing his phone so I might not hear from him until tomorrow or the next day haha

 

Yeah I will be visiting my scouts that week but I don't go with them I let others handle that. We have 2 going to world Jamboree!

 

Bingo!

 

@PvilleJohn ??? He's at AOP right now with Jimbo, Brad and a bunch of others.

 

Sweet! My son was selected for world jamboree too! I am an ASM, so I go; kinda like it. The boys manage themselves.

 

No, I have a friend named John that I went to college with who lives in Gastonia. He doesn’t have a tacoma despite my trying to talk him in to it

 

Yeah I'm essentially the 2nd SM but we have, 2 week long camps the boys go to. Plus this yr we have a contingent going to Glacier Nat'l park as soon as school lets out 2 week rd trip. Then they get back and some head to Niagra falls and onto ohio to go to the amusement park there. Then bus returns only to leave again for Philmont that is a month long trip. All the while these trips are happening we have other weekend trips throughout the summer we go on as well. We stay uber busy.


Congratulations to your son that is a huge deal!!!! He'll have a blast.

 

@uhplifted a good friend of mine told me you can always make more money you can't make more time. While Florence is just a lading spot for my wife and I we love the south east and plan to stay for the foreseeable future.

 

Those words are spoken from a true wise man!

 

They do have some nice trucks. I'm going to get down there and get to know some of them one day. I've chatted with Mark a little (Fork chief/assistant fire)

 

I've known Mark Bryant for years. His mom was my social studies teacher in high school. Him and Billy McAdams run a good station though.

 

Anyone who has installed the SOS front IFS skid can you tell me, do you re-use the frame bolts or do you need longer bolts? I was thinking it somehow bolted up where the OEM skid is, but it doesn't.

 

Not SOS skid but they should all be the same. The front 2 are OEM bolts and I believe the back bolts need longer ones

 

Bugger... I was hoping to get this thing on before headed out to AOP tomorrow.

 

I could be wrong. But I’m pretty sure my rci and mobtown front skids both came with longer bolts for the back
