The biggest one you can get in an ambulance here in Germany is as far as I know a 3.5 liter v6.

Ambulances here are big, too. They've increased visibly in size since I started working, and I honestly don't know how Fire Rescue gets down some of our smaller alleys with them. The auto-deploying tire chains are pretty rad, though.

I imagine if you go back 20 years or even 10 there is a lot more equipment they're trying to cram in the back Have ambulances started installing USB ports in the back yet ? For when you absolutely need to selfie but have low battery

The Econolines were available with a 7.3 until mid 2003 then switched over to the 6.0. They never built em with 6.4/6.7s because of upper bay clearance. When the 6.7 did come out, they just offered the v10 in them. Most of them were not intercooled.

Currently: 1294 cubic inches over 32 cylinders, 642CID/16cyl of which are installed in vehicles. Lifetime: 2344 cubic inches over 56 cylinders. All of them V8s, using nominal displacements rather than actual (because I don't remember what the exact bore numbers are, and two of them I never opened up). Never sold a car.

I'm absolutely not going to count up all of the cars I owned for the space of a week or two and bought to fix and flip, because I'd be here all day. Did count the bikes. All time: 17.05 liters, 40 cylinders, 1440hp. Current: 4.0L, 10 cyl, 380hp. Family life man, it leaves little room for toys.
