    20 yr paramedic here. Loved seeing your thoughts on what can be done with a retired ambulance. Personally my favorite retired ambulances are the ones you turn into Ectos, but this one is cool too. Keep up the good work!

    Best base for conversion to a camper. Upmost build quality, pre wired, insulated with uber outside storage. No brainer. 7.3 is a die hard monster of an engine. Worth losing a little MPG for dependability and longevity. Great vid.

    The deal on these ambulances can get even better, my buddy bought one and it still had the stretcher in it, he sold it to cash4cots for over $6,000! It was in great shape and was one of the motorized ones which makes it very valuable. That ended up subsidizing a large percentage of the cost of his ambulance.

    I think the bigger reason most people gut the interiors of these is because there is a huge stigma attached to ambulances. People are worried about catching something infectious from touching the surfaces inside.

    • @RustyZipper
      @RustyZipper 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a ‘96 E350 and it’s not the infection people are creeped as most are sanitized daily. People believe that the injured have died inside and left behind haunted spirits, etc.

    The mileage on retired police, fire and EMT vehicles is not what you should go by. With the amount of idling these vehicles do, you always need to go by engine hours instead.
    Typically, idle engine hours will amount to the same engine wear as 5x (or more) of what the mileage on the odometer says... unless it's an ex-highway patrol or a supervisor car.
