@Jim37F here’s one for you:
I’m driving on the freeway to work and see not one, but two Honolulu EMS ambulances oncoming in the opposite direction. A bit out of their jurisdiction? Super rando.

Jokes aside, for our apparatus, because all the manufacturers are on the Mainland, after they build them, they drive them cross country to the ports as kind of a final road test from what I've heard. That and it's probably cheaper than paying to ship them that much further lol
Idk if the same would be true of a new ambulance or not tho

I drove an ambulance from BraunNW (also builds for Honolulu) from Washington to Colorado. Save a bunch of money on freight and was a nice shakedown cruise (that went to the ford dealer soon after).

We get our ambulances from a dealer in Arkansas, so it's a mere 10 or 12 (roughly) hour round trip

We just bought our HazMat truck from a builder in Washington state. We paid a guy to drive it out to PA for us. He stopped and took pics at the tourist spots along the way.
