No, but it can be equipped with a full galley, which I presume would include graham crackers, marshmallows, and Hershey bars.

You must provide your own stick...

From what I’ve read, the “fire suppression system” would need to weigh much more than the vehicle payload.

Fire departments figure 40,000 gallons of water for one electric car battery fire. So this would probably take 160,000 gallons at 8.3 lbs/gal. Well over a million pounds of water.
