N series Izuzu tipper 4x4

Went to see some tippers at a dealership today. Got home home and googled something but found 4x4 version looks pretty sick. Why is it Yanks and Aussies do stuff bigger and better

I wonder how much it would cost to import one

What a compact and sure footed looking truck...reminds me a bit of the 4x4 FUSO i drove at Premier.

Im considering a work truck rather than me ranger 4x4 and I know I will try and take the izuzu places I'm used to taking the ranger . These izuzu have better ground clearance too . Tree work landscaping can be pretty varied as you guys know.

The NPS 4wd series are great, I love my old 250, that smaller NLS is a lightweight and doesnt have a low range (its awd) or LSD.

low box is vital on any 4x4 truck in my opinion as you have more slow speed control and traction,  plus when ya load the bejaysus out of it you can use low box get ya out of trouble.

It seems like there would be a decent market from them in the UK I don't know why they don't make them available over here. Maybe we could start a lobbying group?
