Unimog Fire Germans - Lego

Unimog is a range of versatile four-wheel drive trucks produced by Mercedes-Benz, a division of Daimler AG. They are mainly used as military vehicles, but also by firefighters and even in competitions such as the Dakar Rally.In Western Europe, they are commonly used as snowplows, carriers of municipal equipment, agricultural tools, construction equipment and road-rail vehicles.

The first model was developed shortly after World War II for use in agriculture as self-propelled machine, designed with a permanent AWD, with wheels of equal size, to be driven on roads with higher speeds than standard tractors. With their high ground clearance and a flexible framework which is essentially a part of the suspension, the Unimog are not designed to carry as much load as regular trucks, but on much more rugged terrain.
