Ambulance 799
Ambulance 799 is a 2013 Freightliner M2/Wheeled Coach Ambulance. It is our first Ambulance to have an integrated child seat built into the ambulance.

Ambulance 799 also features an air-ride suspension. This feature serves two important purposes. First, it gives an improved ride in the back for the comfort of our patients and our crews! Second, when the rear doors are opened, it allows the rear of the Ambulance to "kneel", making loading and unloading easier. Given the fact that this Ambulance is larger and sits higher than previous units, this is a very important feature!
One final safety feature that is new to us on Ambulance 799 is the addition of rear Chevron Stripes. These stripes are made of a reflective material to make the rear of the Ambulance more visible while operating on or near a roadway.

The current Ambulance 799 replaced a 2003 Ford E-450/1991 Medtec.
