These unlikely Tow Vehicles are becoming more common for towing heavy Off Road Caravans(8000lb+) see my posts un the Travel Trailer section. A 20,950lb combined weight of rig gets 22litres per 100k's or US 10.96mpg
In this case a RAM 2500 had broken down and had to be towed by this young couples 4x4 Isuzu

That was quite a rig and quite an adventure! They are certainly raising those boys right. Interesting that SES uses a plain old Ford pickup for a recovery vehicle- I would think that a shorter version of that Isuzu would be better.

They also use those as recovery vehicles. Find it interesting that many young couples with children are using these. Youtube video by the Cartwrights is quite fascinating.
Isuzu 4x4 is considered a light truck in Australia. Japanese have bizarre classifications a 52000lb GVWR 100,000lb GCVWR is a " heavy medium"
