Well we know that the US suffers from a chronic problem of junk food and too much sugar based drinks, lack of exercise, not all of them, but a fair percentage. Anyway, these ambulances are for patients who weight between 204Kh (450lbs) and 453Kg (1000lbs) Sheesh yep some people can weight almost 1/2Ton!
So what do these ambulances have that others don't?
- Air supension (like a Citroen car where that back goes down when you stop)
- Tougher suspension
- Wider interiior, ie less room for medical stuff
- a winch
- a trolly, cot for the US folks
- a ramp so that you can winch the person into the ambulance.
There you go, you can't say that the ambulance service doesn't inovate.
