When you are evaluating a Gator for fire or rescue work, focus on bed capacity and bed dimensions. Look for models with higher bed ratings and a cargo box large enough to support the QTAC skid and still allow access to controls. Your QTAC rep can help you narrow down the Gator models that align best with the loaded skid weight and your operational needs.

Some Gators use side rails or tie-down structures that can affect how a skid with patient transport or overhanging components sits in the bed. When a litter platform or rescue deck extends past the bed floor, you need to confirm that it clears any rails or posts. Our team can help you review bed drawings or measurements to make sure the fit is correct.

Not every Gator configuration is ideal for fire and rescue. Models without roll-over protection or with very low bed ratings are not recommended for fully loaded firefighting skids. We generally suggest higher capacity utility and XUV-style Gators with ROPS and robust bed structures for QTAC installations.
