I am currently working in foreign country that has these global trucks. They are so small that people don’t fit in them. The working beds are also so small that they limited to no use. I saw one come into the hotel with the luggage of three international travelers. The truck was filled. I don't care what GVW the vehicle has. It will be of little use unless you are hauling depleted uranium

What country? What type of vehicles? sounds like you did not ask how they used them either. I felt the same way about US Pickups, what did they use to move heavy loads?

The truck was a Toyoda Hilux. emphasis on TOY. The country was in South America.

No such country as "South America" in the Atlas be a bit more specific, post photos you must have some? Group of Australians and Brits on tour in the U.S., thought the same thing about US Pickups" How do they move heavy loads here"

The US full size pickups do quite well with heavy loads. They are rated to performance standard. The mid-size trucks you propose are not rated to the same standards. The US has roads that you can drive your max loaded vehicle for days on end. The roads that I am on currently are signed at 40Kmh. The Toy trucks are loaded with coconuts and not doing well. Maybe 300 coconuts per load.
