Currently the county fleet consists of 25 ambulances. 21 of these are from Osage Industries (Type 1, based on the Ford F-350/450 chassis), and 2 International 4300 Medium Duty units. The two newest units are from PL Custom and are built on the Chevy C-4500 medium duty truck chassis.  Five ambulances in the fleet were bought by SVRS, 1 by CVFR, and with the remainder being purchased by Spotsylvania County. The county units stationed at SVRS stations are co-titled with the squad. 

The county utilizes an established vehicle replacement policy of 5 years or 100,000 miles. The agencies of Spotsylvania County utilize a single ambulance specification that is written and approved by all agencies providing service. The specification is modified on a 3 year basis. This is done in an effort to improve the safety of our providers and for ease of maintenance. 

General equipment specification includes a 72” box, Whelen lighting package, Stryker cot and stair-chair, LIFEPAK 12 monitor, and a computerized record system.  All new units will be based on the Cheverolet C-4500 medium-duty chassis.  Because the ever increasing equipment weight causes excessive wear on the smaller vehicles, all future trucks will be on medium-duty chassis.

 

 


 

The "work horse" of the fleet, Ford F-Series Type-1 ambulances can be found operating at all rescue stations. You will always know Spotsylvania EMS and SVRS by our unique white and yellow color scheme.

This "Monster Medic," an International 4300 Series, is one of two currently in operation within the county. Offering more room for patient care, a sharp turning radius, additional equipment space, ease of maintenance and an electronic Q siren, 4-1 is a favorite among the squad and citizens of the community.

This is the newest truck in the fleet, a 2008 Cheverolet C-4500 from PL Custom.  It is the first truck delivered under the most recent truck specification.
