four-by-four

Homework / test English to Russian Other Medical (general) авто/медицина
Перевожу отрывок из фильма/сериала. Никак не пойму, что подразумевается под four-by-four - авто или что-то из медицины (скальпель, например?). Картинка ничем не помогает, так как на этой фразе отрывок заканчивается.

TATE: I found her, moaning, half-naked, bleeding from her chest and privates. Couldn’t tell her age. Her face was too badly beaten.

STABLER: She moan anything you could make out?

TATE: Nothin’ that sounded like words.

BENSON: We got this call forty-five minutes ago. What’s she still doing here?

TATE: They’ve only been here five minutes.

DOCTOR: Moses wasn’t available to part the morning rush hour. Deep stab wound, left chest. Hand me a four-by-four.
