385 and 386 should be the two. 384 was at the shops a few weeks ago when I was down.

Thanks for the info. Just curious what other large cities fleets consider 'old'.

Guest

The Reserve fleet is of pretty decent quality. Most of the ladders are 2000 models. The Engines range from 2000-2003.

I guess that depends on who trains them at the school....

Guest

There were two of these coming. Who is the other going to be assigned to?

Guest

I want comment on the driving thing however, I will say that that is a pretty sharp looking Ambulance!
i have never been a fan of that IH look....rather see a Freightliner M2

No, that POS is a 2003 Freightliner FL50/Wheeled Coach MAV which was assigned to A12, then sent to Special Events, then was turned into a mobile arson lab. It's still in service running out of FIU.



These new IH/Hortons should work out much better as actual thought went into our current EMS fleet design.
They coulda at least added a lightbar to it...
