Link doesn't work for me in the FTE forum, but it does if I click it in the email. Sweet pic.
Does anyone use the Paramedic trucks anymore like they did in the 70's and 80's? It just dawned on me recently that I have not seen one in a long time, just the big trucks.

As you mentioned, they are kind of old school. The only dept I know of that widely uses them is LA County Fire, but they have a habit of doing things "Because its always been that way".
Recently an audit of LAFD cited several problems, one proposed solution was this plan, which shows how much hurt their dept is in.
They're around, but not common.
