I found this For Sale ad in one of the Thai Forums I read. The foreign-owner used it on his duck farm, but has since sold the farm and no longer needs it. Aside from general transportation, this truck is specially designed for sucking water out of one pond and putting it into another, or irrigating a field.
And it's all powered by a 12hp motor.
Here's the actual ad:
