the 100% directionless thread

Nothing like a nightcap (God bless "Das Boot"), watching my wife do homework posts all while listening to "Earth, Wind, and Fire" after a long, hot, and busy shift filled with critically ill patients and a nice enough trainee on an OT shift.

Oooh, shiny, brand new ambulance, yesterday's shift swapped into, less than 500 miles on the odometer, comes complete with power load system

@Jim37F is that the final product? I almost feel as if a "County Fire" style stripe down the middle of the scheme would give it that final pop, uniformity, and most likely appease their fire clientele.

Are these gonna be the standard for all units in the near future? That would make 24's just a tiny bet better.
 
I like the red. I also like the idea of a county stripe down the side would make it pop.

I have to say, I'm surprised that there isn't a statutory (or KKK-1822) mandate for power load yet.

I agree, but nope, what you see is what we get haha, still nice, but yeah, a stripe down the side would look better IMO

Oh did they also happen to throw in a p.a. system with headsets like city RA's? lol

Nope, no PA or headsets, but we do have a working eQ2b which is louder than the Whelen siren lol (even though the Q is only supposed to be a secondary...yeah...sure....lol)
 
I love when traffic camera tickets are approved when your clearly responding L&S... In a state car.... with state plates... pay 50$ my arse. That kinda day i suppose.

Edit: Approved by a cop thats not my biggest fan..

This was so good. One of my former colleagues whom I used to work with at Rural/Metro suggested this little joint. A wet California burrito. Yummy!

do the als rigs still have a huge "paramedics" banner on the side?


also, something i read in the intro thread prompted a question.
the LAFD NP rigs, are those NP full sworn FFs? were they already FF's that are NPs, sent NP's to academy, or single function providers?

Skinny black letters, still visible, but not as huge I guess? One of the 2 medic units was at the hospital with us earlier, but didn't think to grab a pic of RA504 lol

As far as I know they're single role NPs....no idea if they're also current or former FFs, all the pics I've seen they're in scrubs, haven't actually met any of those crews yet though.
