They are using that as RB1 the Regular one they don’t like the newer ice cream truck they call it.

What is the story with members of Rescue 1 wearing the shorter turnout jackets.
Are they only worn for rescue operations and not firefighting?

SOC companies and EMS Rescue Medics are issued the Ricochet jackets for use on technical rescue jobs.

That thing probably sucks to drive

The PRUs? They actually drive really well, I think they have a shorter wheel base. I've been an aide in them a few times and I have no complaints. If anything I think the compartment space which wasn't designed for this purpose would probably be the headache. As unless they're was some sort of retrofit the back is full of medication refrigerators, etc.
