Found a cool video about this rig

Looks like there is no pump and it’s all just a shitload of storage compartments. The tandem axle was so they could pack every compartment with rescue shit.

Massive truck.

I know down here in California. Orange Fire & Rescue uses an old tiller truck for USAR

That's not an old tiller truck, it's an old rescue truck. It was one of the first tiller rescues ever specc'ed, in the early 2000s.
