In reference to the ford medic units that were rechassied, they have 2010 PP numbers. But didn't enter service til 2011/12. Same as the previous GMC M22,17,18 that had 08 PP numbers but hit the street in 2010.

Did they scrap both the type 1 medics?

No offense Brian, but who ever loaded that hosebed did a crappy job!

1) the cargo net - (Now NPFA required device to hold the hose in) does not help with making this look NEAT.
2) the PIPELINE ENGINES carry 1000 Feet (500 feet MORE then a normal Philly Engine) so that too makes this look not well packed.
Just my 2 Cents on this... neat or not... gets the job done. Plus if you did not have a raise in 3 years... would you care how it looked?

Sorry, but that is not an excuse. We haven't had a raise in 4 years, and I STILL care about how my truck looks. How my truck looks isn't for the department, it's for me.
IMO, that's a poor excuse for laziness. Don't get me wrong, we have PLENTY of guys that say the same thing. These are the same guys that had another excuse when we WERE getting raises.
Philadelphia, PA - Guest - 08-25-2012
It is what it is but you guys need to calm down right? From the west coast to the east coast the same thing is going on no raises for this no raises for that.no need for a Pi%^$g match at all but that is just my opinion no more no less.I wish i had some pictures to get this thread back on topic but i do not.Sorry for the rant but that is just the way i see it.
Philadelphia, PA - Guest - 08-26-2012
Fireman5230: Maybe the [ your words ] NPFA "requires" depts to use cargo nets but the NFPA doesnt. They strongly recommend but thats all. NFPA doesn't enforce. Know your facts before you attempt to lecture.
By the way, lack of recent raises is no excuse. Its lack of pride plain and simple.
Feel free to p.m me if you would like to debate this further. I really dont want to take away from BMotts pics or this thread in general.

Ok, I know they had alot of medics like that, that perticular year. How can you tell which one this was?

I believe you are correct judging by the property number.
Philadelphia, PA - Guest - 08-26-2012
There were very few 03 fords in use and I'd reconize M26's darker then normal hood anywhere.
