I think maybe you are misunderstanding his statement that is getting your "dandruf up.
No I did not misunderstand what he said. I his latest post he saw 16 US Pickups far cry from" I in 12"
I would suggest 1 in 12 tow vehicles for RV's was an American pickup.
I was amazed how many there were!
Just past Port Augusta to Iron Knob, SA, within half an hour I passed, two current shape Chev Silverado's, I had already past from Berrima to Port Augusta, 7 American pickups with either Travel Trailers/Caravans or 5th Wheelers, one towing a Harvester.
Between Ceduna to Perth, I passed another 9 US pickups. Not hordes, but still prevalent, considering, these four days there was a total lack of Grey Nomad Caravaners, traversing the
continent of Australia, just hundreds of Semi Trailer Trucks.

We as a TC forum have followed Sheriffdougs purchasing decisions, and his travels across Australia to pick up his new truck with the accompaning pictures. You seem to have an agenda... againest either Sheriff Doug or American made trucks. From my personal view and reading many of your previous posts I've always thought you might be a truck salesman. (Do you personally have an RV of any type?)
So did the Former editor BRADW and myself and a lot of what he said was contradictory. I live here and his place of abode and busineaa address are strange. SheriffDoug sounds a lot younger than a fellow who has a luxury Motorlaunch, . The "accompanying photos' only show almost studio shots of the vehicle nothing else unlike Steve "Sabconsulting"

I do hope that you'll answer my concerns about braking with the trucks shown in your pictures.
No problems with braking. Can you tell me what the Vehicle is ?and why it replaced F250's in Australian mines? Give you clue well regarded in the Off Road Industry.
