That's the new Frazer replacing the 2010 Braun E450 I'm in at the moment. Hopefully we put it in-service soon.
My rig on my new shift is a van and my partner doesn't like mods.... I'm going to work on converting him. It's impossible to go back to a van after working a year in the largest box in the fleet.

How can you miss a type two? There's no room to work in the back when there's more than one person! I haven't been in a van full time since we started getting mods into our division. Every shift has always been a good mod.

I'd kill for a Type I with a generator.

One of the places I worked had a 1983 Stoner and a couple of 1987/88 Wheeled Coach ambulances (all of them were Ford vans) in the fleet. At the time the Stoner was probably one of the only gas powered units in the entire county. Oh, and it was also set up to handle 4 patients, all on stretchers or litters. One on the gurney, one of the bench, and 2 hanging from the ceiling. I've never taken more than 2 patients in that one... but one day I got bored (it was a Sunday, I think...) and set up the back. Let's just say that surprisingly enough, there was still some room to work back there! Never did get a picture though. That would have been awesome! Of the other two older units, one was notoriously difficult to start when the motor was cold. Once going, it happily ran all day. The other units were all relatively newer units and all but one of those were PSD. Though there was this one mini-mod that had the 7.3 NA motor... Sure it'd go all day but getting it going was always an exercise in patience because it just accelerated so slowly. Oh, did I mention the Stoner had a big block V8? It was great fun driving on the freeway! It could out-accelerate any other ambulance in the County.
