- Some nice rigs, too bad we don't have them here in Canada, the closet we have to make one is the Hino cab over.

Get a vast range of tow vehicles here, depending onbon the the 5ver- It mostly comes down to the fact that hear in Australia vehicles GVM and GCM as set by manufacturer is the limit, and any trailer over 4500Kg has to have air brakes, at least those trucks already has this setup, to change a Ute to air brakes about $20000 .
