Default Chris, forget the Aussie Blitz,

the Kiwi puddle jumper is the ultimate little big truck.

The C8AX is 7250 lb gross, ie 3.35 ton loaded. It still looks like a C15A but has the benefit of being within the rules for a car licence.

The C15A is 10,000 lb gross, ie 4.6 tonne loaded

Here in NZ we are saved the hassle of drivers log book, hubodometer and road user charges, and restricted driving hours. Warrant of fitness checks are less than half that of a large truck too.

note you would'nt want to exceed the driving hour limits in a PJ!
