Never worked for FD but as a kid I loved the show "Emergency" based on the first para-medic crew, and paid attention to the vehicles at the local fire stations.

Where I grew up in OH they were called "Box-21" for some reason and were in ambulances.

I remember the open cab Mack, Pirsch and LaFrance engines still in regular use.

I also remember when the first "attack pumpers" based on pickup trucks showed up.
They were Dodges.
