Oldest Ambulance
Ok today I was cruisin down 20th and to my right I saw a 1987-91 Ford 1ton diesel ambulance pull next to me. I thought this was odd and must be some small Municipal truck but on the side it said some like Saskatoon Health Region or area I forget the exact wording but it was a Saskatoon ambulance and driving it were two guys looking like so I assume paramedics.
But that seems odd too me I never thought A region like Saskatoon would not be still using a old Ambulance, Anyone have a theory or knowledge?

Maybe they were health maintenance workers who wanted to get between jobs in a hurry.... 
Did it have all the regular ambulance lights, equipment still on it?
I can`t say I`ve seen any such ambulance driving around.

All built on F350 Cab and Chassis.
