it really helps when you give that excellent view of the equipment while it's operating. Being able to see it while it's driving gives a totally enhanced perspective of the effectiveness of all the lights. Thank you I hope you continue doing that whenever you show equipment it's always nice to see it at a distance because it highlights the true capacity of the lighting systems.

Like how he's carrying while showcasing the vehicle haha...

[@iamReddington]

You expect to see open carry like this in Texas, not PA.

[@ryansnyder7622]

@@iamReddington They do have a gun store and range, so might as well open carry lol.

[@nathansmith5948]

We have a policy at work, no concealed carry while in the building!

[@nathansmith5948]

Bought my gun at 911 😁

[@iamReddington]

@@nathansmith5948 Good policy to have! No reason to carry in buildings.

[@kenro-96]

Is it me or does the side arm stand out from this awesome build? Lol

[@ryangross4958]

turned out nice. rapid 911 in the mid Atlantic region captured the needs of the emergency response.

[@jarrythskeen8336]

Like these sweet pattern on the main light bar. Who is the manufacturer on the fog lights those are nice looking

[@kevinbell260]

Nice!!

[@iamReddington]

The Tahoe is so hot! but damn do I hate the argis spotlight. It looks so weird and out of place.

[@NX-gw7wg]

They may look out of place but they are effective. I've seen them on many vehicles in the field.

[@ml9867]

I'd rather have a hole in the fender than the A pillar.

[@baddriversofthenorcalarea500]

For some reason they look much better in person. I hated them too until I was able to actually use one!

[@jastubler]

It’s lost on me why an EMS unit needs a push bumper or for what legitimate EMS purpose?

[@35manning]

In Australia we call them "bull bars" and them normally extend all the way to the sides and some even wrap around with side bars that extend past the wheels and tie back in to the chassis under/behind the front wheel guards. While I understand that many USA police cars have "push bumpers" for use in pursuits or for moving vehicles off highways / dangerous areas to safety, ultimately bull bars are an armoured accessory that protect the vulnerable and fragile vehicle against slow / medium impacts. Common examples included small trees and brush, fences and gates (sometimes in emergencies it's better to just drive through them and fix the fence / gate later) and animal impacts. In Australia, kangaroos are a REAL hazard and it's not uncommon for even family sedans to be fitted with bull bars, which are seen as a disposable / replaceable item that whilst not preventing damage to a vehicle will in most cases minimise that damage and prevent the vehicle from becoming a complete write off. I highly doubt that an EMS vehicle is going to be ramming cars in a pursuit, but the may have airports nearby fitted with "break away" gates. Gates designed to be rammed with minimal damage. There may also be some off-road driving or animal risk considerations. Could be a number of valid reasons, even including being used as a mounting point for lights.

[@hihfty]

Its more so to protect the bumper and paint of the vehicle itself versus pushing a car out of your way. Way cheaper to damage tubular metal versus the car bumpers.

[@jastubler]

@@hihfty I’m well aware of what a ‘push bumper’ is for. How does it fit into ‘emergency medical services?’ I have never seen and EMS unit, fire department, or an ambulance push a car out of a roadway. Simply, it’s not their role.

[@hihfty]

@@jastubler you’re missing the point. They aren’t using them to push cars. They’re using them to protect the vehicle from the bumps and dings that inevitably happen during its life time. Having a ton of people with different driving skills it’s inevitable they hit things by accident. For instance my department also runs 10 ambulances and they have “push bars” that have taken a beating but they have never once used them to move a vehicle.

[@Will97675]

A lot of fire departments here outfit their ambulances with full replacement brush guards. They’re outfitted with brush guards to protect the front from damage. It’s just a precaution.

[@JAYY_JAYY]

Where are these vehicles sold when retired ?

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

What's the need for the overhead A/C for only 2 occupants?

[@Julius4396]

It's not for the occupants, it's for the medication that's carried
