That is HOT!! I love the sweep patterns.

[@TheBenghaziRabbit]

adding a 6 unit Traffic Advisor on the back of the HVAC would have been sweep

[@kwamenketiah3082]

If nobody sees this emergency vehicle responding with this amount of lights on it then they must be crazy ❤ the rap on it but the way 🎉🎉

[@longviewstud26]

Looks great. Love the light

[@BradleyPetrohoy]

The intersection sweep with the Argis is a great idea! Is there a way to turn it off while responding during fog or other poor visibility conditions? I know you could bump down to level 2, but I wasn't sure if you could avoid losing all of the priority warning. Also, does the operator have the option for manual control in level 3 (search, looking for house numbers, etc) or does the lighting need to be backed down?

[@911RapidResponse]

Yes slider 2 will turn it of along with park mode. You can move the controller for it at anytime and it will override the sweep mode.

Love the videos

[@daleurban4059]

Lights on a running board are a waste. They are not visible in traffic.

[@StartsAt]

And they look ridiculous ( IMO )

[@Internethugg]

Someone should introduce them to dual head radios.

[@prosperity4444]

Whelen and federal need to catch up to feniex an offer standard quad color

[@jastubler]

I’m lost as to the need for a paramedic vehicle to require a push bumper

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

Safety, some areas also do have a need for it perhaps for rescue if fire or police aren’t available.

[@TomG1993]

It's a good place to mount additional lighting.

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

@@TomG1993 that’s true

[@mitch1348]

Agreed - especially when it covers the “EMS SQAUD” lettering.

[@jastubler]

@@TomG1993 a whelen ion can be mounted on the grill. Quite an expense for a bracket

[@eddiemcfadden4386]

Why does it require a aux hvac system

[@NX-gw7wg]

To keep medications and other equipment in a temperature controlled environment when the vehicle is not running.

[@hihfty]

@@NX-gw7wg Interesting, is the vehicle not stored inside between calls? The amount of meds that need to be in fridges are very few and can easily be kept in a 1x1 fridge.

[@NX-gw7wg]

@@hihfty Not at this department. They're hospital based and don't have a garage. This is only one of 3 main squad trucks, 2 of which are regular medics and the 3rd is the shift supervisor (platoon cheif) that also runs their own calls or backs up the hospital's other units as needed. This system in particular also runs 3 MICUs 24/7 and staffs I believe 2 or 3 different volunteer department's 1st due ambulances during the day.

[@NX-gw7wg]

@@hihfty It's also there to keep the equipment batteries and non refrigerated meds from freezing in the winter and to keep stuff from overheating in the summer.

[@hihfty]

@@NX-gw7wg that makes sense. Did not realize the vehicle wouldn’t benefit from being indoors and having shore power to keep battery’s charged.

[@jrftworth]

The roof mounted HVAC seems unnecessary. The checkerboard graphics are hideous and all the different decals on the rear half of the sides is overkill and makes it look way too busy.

[@realworldissues]

Some depth especially rural this is their closest to medicine or crucial life saving stuff.

[@MIKES0029]

That roof ac is so unnecessary and the hood decals are completely blocked. Why no Amber in park mode?

[@Nycmade_]

Why use the big hvac system ? The truck doesn’t come with ac/heat ?

[@NX-gw7wg]

To keep medications and other equipment in a temperature controlled environment when the vehicle is not running.

[@prosperity4444]

What is the hvac for

[@LetsgoBrandon2023]

Medication
