6x6 fire appliances were very rare among public fire services in Germany, but quite common in military and airport brigades. This beefy pump, presumably with excellent off road capabilities and an oversized water tank, was a perfect second hand acquisition for a small volunteer fire company like Wolpertshausen.
This village with only 2000 inhabitants has 63 operational volunteers and operates three full size appliances, plus a crew bus and a unit which carries a portable pump.
