Yes, several Leopard chassis have been sold out of Montreal depot and from Wainwright this past summer (2005). 

One of the buyers is TEXOGA, a Texas-based company that is developing the Leopard chassis as a fire-fighting veh in the oil patch and in forestry operations. Enter TEXOGA in your browser to see how some ex-Canadian Leopards will find a new life.

You know what is frustrating?? I am currently a Leo D+M instructor and have been asking if it would be possible to get the driver cabs back to assist in instruction.  I have been told NO.  Wish I had known about the sale of these a while back, I would have picked one up!!

I suspect most of you dudes, like me, couldn't afford the maintenance costs and fuel for this bad boy even if you did get it into the garage.
