**ANNOUNCEMENT**
Three years ago, our original Unit 200 — a 2012 Ford E-450 — suffered significant mechanical issues that ultimately could not be repaired. At the time, we were fortunate to acquire a 2011 GMC 4500 from Howland Fire & Rescue. That truck served us well and helped bridge a critical gap, but it was always a temporary solution.
Since then, we’ve been working behind the scenes to find a long-term replacement that meets the needs of our service and the communities we serve.
On March 24th, we officially took delivery of our new Unit 200 — a 2025 Ford E-450 Demers Ambulance.
A big thank you to Autotronics LLC and Kyle Daigle for helping make this purchase possible and guiding us through the process. We would also like to thank Bangor Savings Bank for their assistance in helping make this purchase a reality.
Over the past few weeks, our crews have been hard at work outfitting and preparing the unit for service. On April 8th, Unit 200 handled its first official call.
This new ambulance represents a major investment in our system — improving reliability, safety, and our ability to deliver high-quality care to our patients.
