    Our oldest ambulance is an B3 it has the 7.3 liter V-6. B1 and B2 have the 6.0 liter V-6 which we all know isnt the best desiel engine that ford came out with. we wanted to trade in B2 to get more of a discount on a the new ambulances. one company is offering us a good amount of money as a trade in the other 2 not so much. that was our thinking.

    just as a side note the 7.3 and the 6.0 are both 8 cylinder engines not 6's. good luck with the new rigs.

    I think after a multi agency debriefing, which would be quite benificial in this case (and nothing negative really occured), we can eventually discuss it here. For now, Kudo's to everyone involved, as this was one of the most indepth incidents anyone involved has ever experienced. Class 5 rapids, inacessable victim, night time rescue, ect. ect.

    I personally would like to thank the the WCPD Aviation Unit for lighting the way safely home for us and the County TRT boat, we couldn't have done it without you.

    well said and good job to all who were there. it was a pleasure to work alongside YFD-Swift Water Team for the first time and look forward to training with you guys in the future. I believe it was the NYPD chopper that led us out though. either way thanks to NYPD, WCPD, and NYSP avaiton units for their help with this incident
