 | | Designed to meet the need for a premium, yet cost-effective custom cab and chassis, the American LaFrance Metropolitan provides a powerful alternative to the American LaFrance Eagle or Freightliner Business Class chassis. Virtually unmatched in safety features, the Metropolitan is part of a small family of cabs to pass stringent European ECE-R29 crashworthiness testing. A host of cab, engine, and transmission options make the Metropolitan an outstanding choice. |
