Medix Ambulances Provides Flexibility for EMS/Fire Departments with New Extended Cab Option

The MSV-II 157 Type 1 ambulance is now available on the Ford F-450/550 SuperCab, giving first responders more room to work, adapt, and deliver care on the move.

July 30, 2025 – Elkhart, Indiana: Medix Specialty Vehicles is now offering more flexibility with a new Ford F-450/550 SuperCab chassis option for their MSV-II 157 Type I ambulance. The new option provides an expanded workspace for EMS/Fire teams across diverse care settings, demonstrating Medix’s ongoing dedication to addressing real-world operational challenges with high-value solutions.

“Our customers come first, and providing options like the extended cab is about more than just design—it’s about understanding how they work and what helps them succeed,” said Scott Cummings, Director of Sales at Medix Specialty Vehicles. “First responders are constantly adapting to new challenges, and we want to give them the flexibility that supports those evolving demands. Our goal is to be a reliable partner by offering efficient, durable vehicles delivered quickly, without compromising quality or service.”

The extended cab design enhances operational efficiency by offering additional seating and in-cab storage, giving crews more room to work and move throughout their shift. Whether transporting extra equipment, accommodating hospital staff, or simply providing a more comfortable ride during long transports, the extended cab configuration helps departments adapt to the specific needs of their crew and communities.

Medix’s MSV-II 157 Type I ambulance, placed on a Ford SuperCab chassis, delivers the same high-value, reliable design that Medix customers trust, with additional space to store essential equipment, transport specialized teams, and keep crews comfortable during long hours on the road. With added legroom, accessible rear storage, and thoughtful interior conveniences like console access for all crew members, the new extended cab layout supports better workflow and comfort.

Built on the trusted Ford F-450/550 platform, the MSV-II 157 Type I extended cab offers the power, payload capacity, and performance customers expect, backed by Medix’s focus on building lasting relationships and delivering short lead times.

The MSV-II 157 Type I extended cab ambulance is available for order now. To learn more, visit medixambulance.com/ambulances/msv-2-157-type-1/.
