Looking for feedback on ambu

Posted on March 1, 2008 at 11:15am 2 Comments

Our dept. is looking to buy a new Type III ambu.I'm not looking to talk to dealers online.I wanted feedback from any dept. who may have purchased a Chevy Type III.I want to know any problems they might be having with them.I know they are new to the ambu market.We heard that the Ford is having problems with the turbo in the 6L and tranny.I'm not looking for a chevy vs ford battle I just want the best for our dept.
Thanks,
Winnie
