2 Reasons. First, they don't have the correct body. Second, it's Greenlight. Why expect them to extend the effort to do it right.
Maybe somebody with scratch-building skills will make the proper utility box for a squad.

I like the fact they are doing an LACoFD Ram, but why not do a paramedic squad instead of a utility?Statistics: Posted by Sirentoys — Sat Mar 06, 2021 2:03 am

A few years ago (2-3 now) on one of the sires there was a post about up coming GL models, some of which came through some did not. Anyway a Aerial Ladder Truck was listed but nothing has ever come of it. Statistics: Posted by DaveP — Sun Feb 14, 2021 2:31 pm

GL had already announced a number of fire units for 2021 including the M1008 In FDNY colors with the fire equipment, hose and tank. My guess like others is it will be a generic skid unit, or one modeled after a real unit, I think the will build one skid unitit fit various pick up beds and then used as a “close-enough to the real thing” for all the brush trucks.
For LA County I’m guessing it’s just a Dodge pick up in their graphics, I think if they where doing a Squad, Patrol (light brush) or even using the service body truck, they would have made a note. I could be wrong.
I suspect East Brookfield is most likely a typo and should be F350.
I’m a bit surprised they didn’t do at least one model using the service bed body as a utility or rescue in this set of 6.
I hope I f the line seems to do well they will add some more bodies in time such as a Type I ambulance, rescue squad, brush truck and such. I also suspect these would be basic bodies and not altered to each departments customized needs.
A few years ago (2-3 now) on one of the sires there was a post about up coming GL models, some of which came through some did not. Anyway a Aerial Ladder Truck was listed but nothing has ever come of it. I’m surprised we have not seen a commercial pumper, rescue or tanker in the International chassis yet. If they do any bodies or fire apparatus I suspect it will be basic bodies / trucks with different departments paint jobs and little to no body variations. More like the old Road Champs 1/64 line as opposed to Code 3 and their accuracy. I am fine with this and do not expect crazy changes in models that cost $5-20 a piece. If nothing else GL might be offering a line that will peak interest into fire apparatus modeling as they will be priced for entry level collectors or for impulse buying. Also might offer some good donors for kitbashers, especially those starting out.

I totally forgot about that body, which is strange since I have several of them Mon Feb 01, 2021 8:05 pm
Here's my guess. Knowing that Greenlight does not change much that LA County could be this with a surf board on it. Another senior moment.... Statistics: Posted by M1968Q — Mon Feb 01, 2021 9:10 pm
