R59-40

This is our light rescue vehicle. It is a diesel powered four wheel drive, built on a 2006 Ford F350 chassis. It has a utility body replacing the standard pick-up body. Our EMS supplies are carried on this vehicle. In addition, we have set up a series of shelving in the station, each shelf stocked with supplies for various types of calls. Thus if we are responding for a water evacuation call, all the equipment needed for a water evacuation are found on one shelf, and can be immediately loaded into the back of this truck for response. This allows us to respond quickly, but without carrying the equipment around in the back of the truck at other times (thanks to Assistant Chief Collins for the idea of palletization of equipment for this piece of apparatus).
