You would need truck with 3500kg tow once trailer is added landrover  transit type would struggle

Heard the izuzu dmax has a good towing capacity and reliable motors?

[dumper]

They trade carry capacity on the truck for towing ability you need to look for a train mass of 7 tonnes

I use similar chipper tow with defender 130

Just have to keep looking always dreamt of having a nice old landrover but cant afford 15 - 20k otherwise theyve been around then world twice and been modified to go offroad racing and boulder marks down thensides of them

Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t realise you were INSANE.?

You could tow a chipper with the combo van and a tipping trailer with a 4x4.

This would give you seriously good weight carrying capacity, but it’s a bit ungainly for a typical domestic driveway.

You need to think what your target market is going to be.

 

The truth is nothing is perfect.

If there was a perfect answer we all would run that set up.

You will soon grow out of it.

 

We run a L/R 90 towing chipper( wife fancied a 90) and a 110 hicap towing cage sided 12x 6.6 Ifor non tipping. Suits our works well, we do mix of large domestic, commercial and pipeline wayleave clearances.
