[Scan-DC] Ambulance 723 sighted

[oldsdoug at hotmail.com]

Yeah, most of the ones I've seen are... as are most of them throughout the area (not sure about DC tho) and have been for the past several years.  I always wondered about that - Freightliner must have burned through here and given all the locals a really hard sell.  Wheaton Rescue Squad still seems to have a lot of cutaway E350 F*rds... BCC Rescue got 2 "experimental" Freightliners back in the mid-1990s when the mainstream ambulances were one-ton or 1-1/2 - ton Chevrolet or Ford truck based, but shortly after that, almost everything went Freightliner.
