I see used ambulances for sale in the auto trader all of the time. I have always thought that these would be sweet a RVT (race vehicle transport)



Think about it – they are going to be maintained to a high level, most have low mileage for the age of the thing. They are built on truck platforms with a box or just a full size van. Lots have internal shelves or cabinets – some are made of stainless!



They are almost always diesel. They are going to have extra batteries and dual alternators. Some list power converters – some don’t but I imagine that they all had them at one time (think tire warmers).



Some have the outside lights (not the strobes) that would be nice when working on the bike at night at the track.



And since they load gurneys in the back, you should be able to fit a bike in there with no problem. Won’t sag and ride on the bumpstops like a areostar van with an extra 400+ pounds.



I have seen them from less than $1500 but most are $3000 - $5000.
