The 2018 Wheeled Coach Ford F-450 Ambulance was purchased from Keystone Emergency Vehicles through Pennsylvania COSTARS. The emergency vehicle is equipped with the latest technology. The administration negotiated for the purchase to include an extended 7-year warranty which will provide significant savings.
It will take about three weeks to fully equip the vehicle and get it licensed by the PA Department of Health, Bureau of Emergency Medical Services, before it can be put in service.The new ambulance will likely begin service in March according to Tyler Ryan, Executive Assistant to Mayor Tony George.
