Here is a photo I took at the EMS staging area at the 8th Alarm in Uxbridge, MA.
Am-B-Care Unit 601
Another one, Am-B-Care Unit 605.
Lots of Ambo's in staging.
Acadian Ambulance unit 232. This just hit the streets this week.This is a remount of the same box posted further back in this section. '07 Chevy 3500 HD Duramax.Excellance box with Onan generator powering the box.This is my normal truck,Ive just been off for 2 months healing from a car wreck.
This is our newest* unit, a 2007 F350 with a Frazer generator powered module. The generator powers the 120V scene lights, and 120 Heat pump/AC unit. The patient compartment lights are comprised of 8, 12v flourscent lamp modules. This was our first Frazer purchased to replace a unit (196) that was totaled in a wreck with an APD CVPI while both units were responding to a reported person shot. Since taking delivery of this unit and after recieving nothing but rave reviews from all of our crews, we have ordered two additional Frazer units set to be delivered in late August/early Sept. Picture by myself.
* excluding 4 new 08' remounts
I guess the pics might actually help too huh?
Really like the new Grady unit.
Here goes an older unit from Grady. Shot this at the '04 Atlanta Muster. It's about the only time I've had to get a picture being how busy these units stay!

Thanks for the old van pic Drew, that unit, 224 has since been remounted on an '07 F350 Chassis and was the third unit to have an air-ride suspension (finally). Our remount program has three units out at a time for remount based on condition. We only have a few (maybe 5 or 6) E350 Modules left and they should all be remounted by late this year or early next year in addition to the two new Frazers on order.
Here is a pic of the first remount on an 08' chassis. We already had to send it back to McCoy Miller/Peachstate once due to the new emissions controller blowing flames out the tailpipe occasionally. Unit 7230 2008 F350 Super Duty McCoy Miller Module Re-Mount Inservice April 26, 2007
Also, Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta recieved this new unit several months ago. I believe its a Road Rescue unit, but not 100% sure, didnt think to check for logos on it, but all of the CHOA rides are sweet.
Snapped in front of my firehouse today...One of Da Buses Atlantic EMS uses to service da City of Sin....

The newer Childrens Hospital units are LifeLines. The older ones are Road Rescues. You can tell by the lower rub rails.
