Mercedes has for years made one of the worlds best and most rugged class 8 heavy duty trucks for a global market. They also make many very dependable medium duty trucks used all over the world and many in places where an American truck would last about 6 months. (Think the Congo, Libya, etc)
They are MORE than capable of producing a high quality HD pickup if they wish. This is a market entry model for them. One they see will sell best in a GLOBAL market place NOT just North America...therefore it is not your typical Ford F250....
Yes they are the biggest Truck maker in the world, owning such brands as Freightliner, Western Star, Mercedes Trucks, Mitsubishi Trucks, Bharat Benz, to name but a few
