Newfoundking Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 They're used because they work like vans, but they're more aerodynamic, better on fuel, and cheap-ish considering the size. A lot of people like them because they're roomier than a van, and cheaper than a truck. I personally like a lot of euro-designs. Some of our stuff is too big, it's a waste of resources, just to say, I'm huge. Sprinters could be the new econoline, but for this time, they're still a rarity in service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goog Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I know for a fact that Vancouver Police has one or two, I saw one of them a couple of days ago.correct they have 2,one is a DUI unit and the other is a paddy wagon.New Westminster police and the BC Sheriffs also have some in their fleet.

goog Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 have you guys got any mapping help yet and has cfd got his computer back?Posted 11 May 2012 - 01:52 PM^^ All the units are pretty much done,CFD needs to light them once his PC is ready.We are still actively seeking map and scripting help and searching and watching tutorials in case we have to start the work ourselves.I still need to make a skinned officer for the other police services and the same with the 4 other fire departments.Lots of civilian cars and trucks to westernize too.Nothing has changed,I will as always update you when the need arises...I have not heard from CFD since the beginning of May so he may be away working as he informed me he would be.If I hear from him I'll let you know or if he comes on the site he can update you,till then it's status quo.I just keep doing my stuff when I get time and I'm sure once he's ready he will get back to giving the units life with lights.

BlazingPuppies Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I just added a new BCAS Sprinter to the BCAS fleet.This is a brand new unit that is going through a trial in Victoria,so it is a real life unit. hmm, haven't seen this around yet, i'll ask the paramedics who always come into tim hortons how they think of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goog Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 BCAS will have 4 Sprinters on a trial basis,2 will be Demers Sprinters as the model I have and the other 2 will be Sprinter Crestline as pictured below.All 4 units are on trial basis and will be used for transfers only,if positive reviews they may make it into the general fleet.I don't mind the Crestline with the Sprinter cab,it looks more North American,as long as they don't have those hideous lights on the ambulance.

goog Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 About a year ago I did some stealth skins(charger and cvpi) in our O.P.P. submod project and forgot all about them untill ausavin26 did some today.I always wanted to include one in the RCMP project but as far as I know, none of the police services in the lower mainland (except Port Moody,but I already did their gen duty unit) have stealth vehicles in their fleet.So I have decided to turn the supporters gift umpc cvpi into a special edition RCMP stealth unit.This unit will have the special skin,unique CFD light package and sirens.It will only be available to our long time supporters and members that support us with the fan banner.here's some shots of the vanishing stealth decalshere's a day/night shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
