  • Here's my mini fire truck from Japan, a 2000 Daihatsu Hijet truck that is outfitted with fire hose, pump, axe, lights, siren, loudspeaker, CB radio, ladder, etc. I give a tour of the truck and some basic specs about it. Its a very neat vehicle that was imported to the US after being decommissioned by a fire station in Japan. These trucks have a 5-speed manual trans hooked up to a H/L range transfer case with push button selectable 4wd. Its a 660cc engine making about 50 hp. I bought my truck from dougstrucks.com
    Here's some of the accessories I bought.
    40 gallon tank/sprayer: amzn.to/3DNhqHt
    2in trash pump: amzn.to/3pcLvwc

    初めまして!
    日本の特殊車両がアメリカで走っているなんて、面白いです!
    アメリカで日本の軽トラック消防車を見るのは2回目です。
    私が知っている中ではこの個体と合わせて2台の軽トラック消防車がアメリカにあります。
    確か、メリーランド州だったと思います。
    日本の特殊車両は人気なのでしょうか?
    Nice to meet you!
    It's interesting to see a Japanese special vehicle on the road in the U.S.!
    This is the second time I have seen a Japanese light truck fire truck in the US.
    There are two light truck fire trucks in the US that I know of, along with this unit.
    I believe it was in Maryland.
    Are Japanese special vehicles popular?

      Americans import Japanese cars from Japan.
      It is a strange coincidence.
      American police cars are popular in Japan.
      The downside is that they run out of fuel quickly.

    As a retired fire chief if I had it I would put a 150 gal tank, use same pump with 3/4 inch fire hose. It's a nice truck

    • @NaterTater
      @NaterTater  2 года назад +1

      150gal would likely be a stretch weight wise with the pump and all the other accessories/box on the back.

    If you don't mind me asking, what state are you in? Im trying to figure out how operate one of these in CA. I noticed that you have that orange farm vehicle triangle on the back. Have you ever been hassled by law enforcement for driving on public roads? I live in a small rural town so I think I could probably do the same thing. I'd just hate for it to get impounded because I'd never be able to get it back since it's unregisterable in CA.

      I'm in Michigan. Orange triangle is legal in my area for my use.

      I bought my Suzuki fire engine five years ago in Colorado and shipped it to Eastern North Carolina. The longest road trip I have made is about 50 miles which was a real ordeal! I use a small trailer for longer trips. 55mph is scary and that 660cc engine is working awfully hard at that speed.
