Aussie 5th Wheelers are getting more numerous and bigger

As well as having US Lightweight, High End US 5vers, Custom, local manufacturers, you are seeing more locally made large 5vers. Vehicle tugs are dvided 50/50 between US HD Pickups and everything else

    How many US state and federal parks would allow that RV? Impractical! And cab over engine. Loud. That tow vehicle would make lousy transportation around the area.
