Upset they are getting rid of the "truck" style Beaverbuilt EMS units and going with Suburbans like the county.

If you remember the city had GMC suburbans in I think 1993-94 , only EMS 3 & 4 had em then they sold em off way before they got the ford/ beaverbuilts , but Baltimore County had Ford F-350 utility body EMS units for a little while before the switch back to Suburbans , if I remember correct Baltimore County in the 1970s started out with yellow station wagons.

Baltimore City has:



Hazmat 1 - big Seagrave

Hazmat 2 - International coke truck

Hazmat 3 - as pictured .... its runs most calls as it can handle minor stuff and if the big rig is needed its called for.
