Why are all ambulances Fords?

Every ambulance I have seen in the United States was a Ford. Why not Dodge?

You will find many Ford ambulances because Ford has choosen to pursue that market and manufactures several different vans, trucks, chasis cabs and chassis with the ambulance market in mind. The ambulance prepped vehicles are manufactured with much stronger components to carry all of the additional weight of the body and gear carried in it. The ambulance chassis have heavier springs, bigger brakes, heavier tires as well as heavy duty transmissions, heavy duty cooling systems, heavy duty electrical systems with higher output alternators to run extra lights and gear, extra wiring pre-run for electrical devices, extra engine oil cooler and so much more. Ford also makes similar modifications on its Crown Victoria which is why you see so many Ford police units. This is a marketing strategy that is working despite all of Fords other problems. It is a very lucrative market and Ford has its teeth in deep! Also note that if you look at the warantee tag on many Ford trucks and vans there's a disclaimer regarding converting to an ambulance. If it is not rated for ambulance duty the tag says it will void the warantee. Hope this helps, Hawkrod

If all ambulances are Fords, it's because Ford is the only company who chooses to make them.

Ford is the only american car company to still make ambulances. There are companies that buy trucks from both ford and chevrolet as well as chrysler and international and make them into ambulances, school buses, etc.

Dodge sprinter has been made in to ambulances just not a lot out there but more are coming.

Ford won the bid for production

Dodge does not make full size vans anymore. The sprinter does not count, thats a re-badged mercedes.

Come on everyone knows Ford is the most reliable care or truck you can get

I guess they look for the best deal for wholesale vehicles, the cheapest brand would be selected.

Ease of conversion, reliability, affordability.

I have seen ford and gm

Government deals probably. Plus they're cheaper i think.

Why is the sky blue?

Reliability of course

only the best!
