You can't do that with a Tahoe?
Thats a fair question, but most of the time it is more cost effective to send a big fire truck. There is a minimum staffing on a fire truck and you would have to have additional staffing to support an SUV unit that would need a minimum of two people. The cost in salary for the additional 2 people is more than running a fire truck to the medical call.

Wait... what?
So the reason they send a fire truck instead of an SUV is that there would not be enough people left behind to man the fire truck, yet the entire fire truck with crew currently winds up on the EMS call anyway..?
