Joe771476 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Here in Middletown CT the local hospital dispatches EMT's in Chevy SUV's. But they don't transport in their vehicle. An ambulance still does that. And the Fire Dept. is the primary responder with usually a large rescue truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Kolman Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Just for note South Metro Fire district is the suburbs to the south of the city... One wonders if there are off the shelf storage systems for the PIU/Explorer based platform. I wonder if something along the lines of a Transit Connect with its large aftermarket could be a better platform. I would assume the communications equipment in the PIU are modular and could find room in the Transit Connect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
630land Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Would be nice if there was a version of the Escape for Fire and Police chiefs. No need for 'hot pursuits' and can save $ and fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
