The Mount Prospect Fire Department received a new Type I Medtec ambulance for station 13. Again, one of the last Medtec units prior to the shutdown, this is on a Ford F-450 chassis with job #25913-1, and fleet #527. This will replace the current Ambulance 13 (fleet #524) which will go into reserve status at Station 14. The Type III Taylor-Made unit (fleet #521) will be disposed of.
This is the first Type I unit for Mount Prospect.
