have to say my 2016 daily tipper has been great. I did fit airbags to the rear axle to level her up when 4 ton was on the back. 

 

the 3 litre engine with 8 speed ZF box is brilliant. 

sounds like a great truck Donnk,   is it a 6.5 tonner,  can we see a pic please?

we run 2 Isuzu tippers, one 3.5t and a new 5.5t there great and as Yorkshire compact loaders said there a small lorry rather than a van, they tow well and carry well the only thing is you get a lorry ride where as a modern van is more like a car, that said its a work horse not a weekend family run around. The Isuzu have been great, parts are a bit more but then when you compare say a brake caliper its twice the size of a van one so horses for courses.

If you read more into the nissan cabstars they are an electrical nightmare. I have found this and yeah great truck for performance but once the electrical problems start, you will wish you had another motor. And not to mention all the parts are so expensive being nissan. Nothing but sensors. All issues leading from 1 to another.
