I saw one of these at an offroad expo a few years back and was quite impressed. Got home and visited the local Isuzu dealer and was disappointed. A class 4 model was the biggest they offered and it had the little 200 HP 400 ft/lb. torque diesel. Lots of nice options with 4x4, four doors, air seats and cabs, lots of different electronics from cameras to radios.
They did say that there was a class 6 model that would get the GVWR up to 29,000 lbs. but it still had the little diesel power plant.
You do not have the heavy Isuzus in the US, where you are looking at 100,000 or vastly more GCVWR. Isuzu, UD, Mitsubishi and Hino all produce 13-15litre engines for very heavy work, their so called Medium Trucks are very heavy.
Far cry from what you can get in the US as far as Japanese Trucks go. European Trucks have similar lineups, but they have 700hp+ engines they you do not get in the US
All Japanese and European Trucks have 4x4 Trucks like I have posted in my original photos
