Perhaps the reason TFD buys these is because this short wheelbase 6X2 rear axle steering chassis is highly maneuverable? As far as I know this configuration is not available from domestic Japanese truck builders. Hino did build a small number of custom chassis like this a few years ago for turntable ladders - but they were probably a very expensive project, while this Econic is a standard build.

Yes, Rob you are right, easier to maneuver in Tokyo Streets, the former versions on Hino and Isuzu were on long chassis
