Look at the Sycamore Township, Ohio Fire Department and the Sandy, Utah Fire Department. One uses Seagrave transport engines and one uses E-One transport engines. Just some thoughts.

Stay low and move it in.

Prior to Oviedo going that route, Orange County (or Orlando) did the same thing and found that Orlando Regional Medical Center (now healthcare system), the level I trauma center, could not fit them under their ambulance awning and parking area, the MAVs from Wheeled coach barely fit. (The Changed that back in 1995 I think)

Something to think about if looking at going that route.
