Two new International TerraStar medic units, designed by Leader Ambulance in Los Angeles, were placed in service May 1 by the Moraga-Orinda Fire District. "We responded to complaints about an uncomfortable ride, and the fact that the old ambulances were not properly designed for our roads," said firefighter-paramedic Matt Lopez of the district apparatus committee. "We chose and designed ambulances to give us the longest service life and requiring the least amount of maintenance." -N. Marnell
