You have up to $15k to spend on a car that gets decent gas mileage that will haul up to four people, each with one suitcase, comfortably for a 100 mile drive once a week. What do you buy?

The county I work in is pretty much rural with some suburbs and small cities, we'll run anywhere from 7-10 ambulances to cover the majority of the county, with the exception of one FD that has two or three boxes. We try to run Medic/EMT on most of the rigs with one or two EMT/EMT rigs to...

Not if your family destroys food the way mine does. If you're not there for the first go around you're SOL. Friggin' animals :lol:

I dunno, it might be a little tight in the chest region... I think I've got about a super model on you in terms of weight :rofl:
