ONE (1) FR CONVERSIONS PIONEER II AMBULANCE July 3, 2023 2023 RAM PROMASTER 2500

Chief Parker
Merced Fire Department
99 East 16th Street
Merced, CA 95340

Dear Chief Parker :

We really appreciate this opportunity to provide a proposal for an FR Conversions Model Pioneer II Type II ambulance. FR Conversions is based in Maryland, privately owned by Eliyahu Rosenbloom, a former medical transport company owner, and has been focused on Type II ambulances built on Ram ProMaster chassis, as well as mobility vans. They produce about 800 ambulances each year and are one of the largest manufacturers of Type II ambulances. One of the reasons we started representing FR Conversions is because their delivery times are so attractive, and the ProMaster offers a number of performance benefits. In addition, it’s the only crash tested Type II ambulance available on the market today.

I’ll also point out a few highlights of the proposed configuration:
• 2023 RAM ProMaster 2500 chassis, 3.6 L V6
