Get a commercial duty Honda power plant if you go that route.You can also find VFD rigs for sale or auction, but you’ve gotta be looking all the time and ready to pounce. A 1 ton brush pumper or a surplus military deuce would probably be the ticket - you’ll get an engine stuck on wet grass, let alone soft ground. For your hose, a short 1” whip line that you can lay along the window and use while you’re driving is great if you’re alone, as well as a 1-200’ wildland hose pack that can roll/fold up in a backpack and be deployed for mop up is a cost effective alternative to a dedicated reel setup. Get a Pulaski, McLeod, Swatter, and a true wildland shovel to keep with you. You’ll put as much fire out with them as you will with water.Don’t forget to put some dish soap in your tank, it’s a poor man’s surfactant and will make your water do a lot more for you.And most importantly, stay in the black.</blockquote>
