Custom Ford Escape Hybrids Given To L.A. Lifeguards

The Los Angeles County lifeguards are being given a fleet of customized 4WD Ford Escape Hybrids. They are getting rid of the usual pickup trucks and have already delivered 10 out of the 45.

Changes made to the Escapes for lifeguard duty include the replacement of the center console with a radio rack and the removal of the 60% side of the 60/40 split rear seat. In its place is a storage unit for emergency equipment. The lifeguards’ Escapes are also fitted with heavy-duty rubber mats and are literally topped off with a custom roof rack.
