FWIW Rehab units are a pretty damn invaluable piece of equipment…during ALL seasons.
And considering the Wildland team’s unit is an X-USFS unit, I would be willing to bet they got it very cheap, as the Federal services are pretty good about being reasonable with their equipment prices.

More wasted money on vehicles that will never get used. Maybe you guys should build a rehab roll off.
