Where is it from? - tk1sq - 10-31-2015
So found this rig on Firetec's website listed for sale. Any idea where it came from, thinking from their site most likely southern CA. Their photo by the way not mine so credit to them. Thanks.

It was one of two that the Santa Ana (California) ran. Santa Ana F.D. was outsourced to the (OCFA) Orange County Fire Authority. OCFA chose not to keep these and a few Freightliner rescues and a American LaFrance Heavy Rescue.

The ambulance company I used to work for bought 2 of the Freightliner/Medic Master (ALF) ambulances from Santa Ana, they have been ok so far as far as maintenance is concerned and what not. They rode pretty nice and the 6 speed transmission was nice for highway travel fuel consumption, they left the status button panel in it which created a lot of questions concerning what it may have been used for (we all operate on radios out here still for everything). It was great when we started cleaning them up and found copious amounts of sand in the suspension and brake system
