We have more information about new ambulance orders:
One of our readers tells us that:
- Downers Grove just ordered a 2012 Freightliner/Medtec to replace the 2006 Ford/Medtec at station #2
Additionally:
- Arlington Heights has ordered (2) new Type I Medtec ambulances on IHC 4300 chassis similar to their squads. Previously, all of their ambulances were Type III styles on E-Series chassis from Ford.

DG switched because of issues with the International’s My rig had been back to the dealer 5 times for service on the engine computer in 2 years.

It’s nice to see International at Arlington Heights. Matthew, they have two 2008 international Squads, I saw it coming. Does anyone know why Downers Grove switched back to Freightliner.

Im surprised to see Arlington Heights is changing to the Navistars. I wonder if it has to do with Fords no longer placing diesels in the Es
