Built specifically for wildland fires, this Bush Buggy is a type 6 off-road wild land firefighting vehicle specification. Type 6 Engines are used as initial attack engines. They are built on a pickup truck frame with a medium duty chassis giving a GVWR of 9,000–16,000 pounds (4,100–7,300 kg). They are required to carry a minimum of 150 US gallons of water, but only pump 50 US gallons per minute (3.2 litres per second; 42 imperial gallons per minute) at a pressure of 100 pounds per square inch (690 kPa). With a 520 GPM high volume pump, a 10 GPM high pressure pump with foam capabilities, and a 250 gallons water tank, the Busy Buggy delivers the performance to meet the complex challenge of wildland firefighting whether stationary or on the move. Accessing tough terrain, whether day or night, this F450 is fully equipped with 4×4, nighttime illumination, and a winch to aid in recovery.
