The Baltimore City FD, is about to recieve 3 of these Polaris Mini-Medics, to be used in high crowded situations. There is no word on when they will go in service or where they will be housed. They will be known as ASAP 1-3. Here's a few sneak peak phots of 1 of the units as they are not done yet. I'm told they will get a 4" White Stripe & a Blue Star of Life on the box.

Any pics of the inside?Those are neat.
Looks neat. I wonder what the bulge atop the roof is for? A/C is my guess.

My agency looked at one. Not a bad unit. A regular ambulance stretcher fits on the back. The unit is A/C'ed. Miami Dade and Cleveland EMS have one. A bit pricey at roughly 60K.

Here is a shot of the back.
Thats pretty cool. My company has an electric golf cart that can hold a strecther, it is not enclosed or anything though, just a flatbed golfcart with a stetcher mount. I will see if I can find a pic.
Photo by our very own AMBULANCE34. This is not nearly as cool as the ASAPs, but keep in mind out mechanic put this thing together himself.

Are these for the "red alert" medic crews, so they can respond "short crew"? ) (LOL!!)

New height requirements for medics? <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hysterical.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Hysterical' /> Ohh, heres one: CRAP unit Command (Remote Access) Post unit. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hysterical.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Hysterical' />



Kidding!! Sorry, if I offend. Just trying to have a "little" levity...
Got a few more indoor shots of the New ASAP Units today, this time with the striping & Star of Life Sticker, I promise as soon as the weather gets better I'll get some good outdoor shots of the unit.
Are these going to be pulled on some sort of trailers, and who is going to man them?

Gotta believe one of them will be on display at Firehouse Expo this year.

When are they ever going to finish the strip on Truck 21?
Not a bad trade for T15, a rear mount for a tiller!

Guest

What was problem with the 2 Seagrave Concorde Rearmounts?

Guest
