The Vista Fire Department announces the arrival of our new state-of-the art Ambulance.

Ambulance 22 is a 2015 Ford F450 Super Duty Power Stroke diesel manufactured by Life Line Emergency Vehicles of Eastford, Connecticut. In consultation with Life Line, specifications for the new Ambulance were made by District Manager Tom Ritchey, EMS Captain Judy Saslow and Fire Commissioner Robin “Duffy” Price.

The Vista Fire Department will be placing the new Ambulance into service once all equipment is moved from the “old” unit and all Vista Fire Department members are trained on the new apparatus. The Ambulance being replaced is a GMC that was first commissioned by the Vista Fire Department in 1987.

We look forward to showcasing our new Ambulance during our “VFD Open House & Recruitment Day” event that will be held on Saturday March 7th at the Vista Firehouse (377 Smith Ridge Road in South Salem) from 11am – 2pm.

The Vista Fire Department is a Fire & EMS agency that responds to about an average of 250+ calls per year serving the citizens in the Vista Fire District.
