    Well, all right. Ambulances already have piss-poor visibility and a high ride height, so this is nothing new.

    Reminds me of the medical/emergency Porsche 928 that Road Atlanta (or maybe it was IMSA) had in the 1990s. It was supposed to rush a doc around the track to the accident scene. Now I think they just use two regualr ambulances, one on pit row and another stationed at turn 7.

    Does it have those subwoofer sirens like all the EMS Expeditions I see around? Those are the coolest, they make me feel like the future.

    The best thing about this article is Autoblog's headline about the same story.

    I love Jalopnik.

    @Skunky: I have a Fiber One bar I can let you have to hold you over. They're surprisingly filling. Of course, you'll have to poo after lunch, but that's good for you.

    This is like being treated by a 450# diabetic, blind, and drunk EMT who just happens to have a really kickass electric wheelchair. He doesn't fit the role, but he'll find a way, dammit!

    Of course not, because the X6 isn't an SUV, it's a Sport Activity Coupe.
