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]

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...
