Awkward relationship talk, double yuck.

Go Dodgers! Yankees suck, Mets swallow.

agreed. I don't like NY sports teams all that much...

A very frequent "customer", like every day 1-3 LDT's a day frequent. ALS, BLS, CCT, it matters not. Welcome to rural California everyone....

Same sentiment, different customer, albeit a well-paying one...

I don't miss them one bit. This one is a newer ambulance, the others are all ex-ALS vans repainted for BLS effect, but still have full ALS cabinets for when they need to be ran as such (e.g., low-ambulance counts, intercept calls).

Either way, one of the other company's has mainly vans, and they suck when they launch us and an already crammed patient compartment is further crammed with curio. Yeah, no thanks.

Those type twos are a lot nicer than the ones we have at AMR. So for me it'd be great.

Really? I figured all NY folks were die-hard about their native roots up to, and including their sports teams.

Ironically enough I'm currently watching "A Bronx Tale". One of my many favorites, great movie.

I'm curious as to why you think that. I've worked for both company's, and a van is a van is a van. I prefer our mods ("boxes"), and am sad to know they may not be purchasing them anymore.

nah, I'm not a fan of: Yankees, Mets, Knicks, islanders, rangers, giants or jets.
Chalk me in as a: whatever team is in dead last in baseball fan, a red wings fan, a buccaneers fan, and a Utah Jazz fan.

Living in the shadows of Chavez Ravine can't be easy, it's ok, I understand.

Haha you're one to talk, don't you technically live in the shadows of Brooklyn? Oh wait... don't you hate NY teams? Brooklyn Dodgers ring a bell? *mic drop*

I'd totally take a mod over anything. I just meant that I'd rather be in that kind of van bc it looks newer.

*picks mic back up* yet they encouraged their rivals to follow them. God bless Walter O'Malley. No shadows where we sit, perched up on the hill overlooking the City Of Angels.

Can't even see the "Big A" from our digs, even on a (rare) clear day.

Some are (like that one), others were repainted so they look newer. That said a "ragged" Hall unit is probably equivalent to a newer AMR unit after 3-6 months. I. Kid. Not.

I believe you. My partner and I had a unit yesterday with over 310,000 miles on it. To say the least we were both nervous every time we had to start it up haha.

I just like how we both have to quote our teams past achievements.

Can a brother get a Freeway Series for a World Series???

We have those as well, however, they're maintained arguably better than half of our employees personal vehicles. And again, the steering wheels are in tact, and MDT's don't have shattered screens.*

*both real-life AMR units I'd had.
