Lsvw
It hard to understand where the years have gone since the LSVW were coming off the line at Western Star in Kelowna. I had the opportunity to tour the plant and look over the finished product but my time with SMP type vehicles was long over by that time. I can't say that I was ever fond of these and by most reports, the users weren't either. Design notwithstanding, hard use and years take their toll on any equipment, regardless of the efforts of the maintainers. If this is the beginning of disposal for LSVW vehicles, I wonder if they will be demilled rather than sold as drivable trucks. The one in discussion here could, as suggested, be more 'residue' than operational.
