Bowling along with lots of happy characters wedged on board - going out for training, or shift-change at the fire-front?
With the 4wd, high ground-clearance, protective guards, big water-tank, monitor, front winch; must be a Brush Truck for Wild-land Fires and Rescue; or does it do Airport Crash-Rescue?
Great photo, capturing the crew.

The U2450L is a long wheelbase Mog, which has the ability to wedge seven hopefully quite friendly firefighters into its four door cab and carry 4, 000 liters of water as well as a powerful pump, class A foam solution and a decent amount of hoses etc.

They are used in several countries as brush pumpers, along with more compact short wheelbase units with either 2, 000 or 3, 000 liter tanks - and a very impressive 6X6 version which combines a crew cab with a 7000 liter tank...
