One really nice truck. I love the fact that the tray is transverse so you can stand on either side of the truck, and pull out the slide. I'm surprised they don't have some sort of a wind deflector on the cab to deflect as much wind away from the body and lowering fuel consumption a bit more. Since the centre console is so long I would've stretched it even further, and moved the controls for the truck's AC and stuff, to the console, tying it in even more. These consoles and pretty much all the solutions from 911 rapid response, shows that these guys knows what they're doing and they have a way of tying everything together, instead of just adding some here and there, making it look like you have no clue about nothing. But, can someone explain to me all the different light colours on the trucks in the US? You got blue, red and blue, red, white and blue, red, white, blue and amber and some are even just red and white. Does the different lights show different purposes the truck or car serve, so that Highway patrol has one design, while the units in the city have another one?
I'm pretty late but lights vary from state to state, generally fire uses red/white with Amber in the the back. some states run red/white/blue. Police generally utilize blue/red But some are just blue. Again some police departments run Amber in the back. EMS is generally the same as fire departments. Amber and amber/white can be run by most people if "your vehicle requires special care or attention" so mainly service vehicles. Depending on state private security may run amber. Green and green/white is generally run by a volunteer fire fighter responding but some states allow private security to run green. Finally purple is sometimes run by hearses / funeral recession vehicles.
Ken B funny to mention we have been getting this often. After looking at that market it was quickly determined that to many companies buy cheap rigs to serve their purpose on the cheapest dollar possible. We don’t feel at this time it makes sense for us to pursue it. However give us about March of 2020 for a new truck coming out. It’s a whole new level for us. Thanks for the comments
I love the Surge. It’s a great build as always!

Nice rig just wish they would open all of the doors so we can get a better idea of the truck. Too much info on lights rigs are more then just lights.
I am really impressed by your build quality and processes. With that said, have you considered ambulance manufacturing?
