Thank you for the compliments, Gepetto! Back in the day when I was an active firefighter/rescue technician/EMT, most rescue units were designed & equipped as rescue only, with engine companies always responding to preform all fire suppression duties. When a rescue unit is designed solely for rescue duties, it's able to haul more weight in rescue equipment & more of an array of equipment types. These trucks are outfitted primarily for any rescue type situation & for rescue procedures required on fire scenes or sometimes on standby in case their highly versatile rescue equipment is needed.
