Jayco(Australia) building its truly 1/2 ton towable model

This would be an Alternative to some lightweight models on the US/Canadian market. Asian 3 Litre Diesel Pickups have no problems towing it.The 5th Wheeler comes in the small 24ft 3 inch size(7105lb)...

Happy New Year everybody. Australian utes are sold as 1 tonners not half tons, and they may have had ther tov rating op grated to 3500kg but the GCVR is still only 6000kg so you can not carry hardly anything after asesseries ,passengers and hitch weight added to vehicle, as for the Iveco daylies I contacted dealer in Australia and they only have a tov rating of 3500 kg also.
