Here is the new e-torque version of the RAM. Just have a look at some of the features. It’s mental & streets ahead of anything we have in SA.

It’s load rating is only 650 kg I think, which is odd. But it’ll tow 5 tons.

R930k will buy one of these in the states, which is cheaper than a spec’d up McNavarra, but for a much better package.

Those are a great package. It’s the same size bakkie as the ones we get in SA, just better. Ram do a similar concept called the Rebel TRX.

There’s literally nothing left to do to them straight out of the box. All the mods are already done. I see that Chev even has AEV components. AEV make some serious stuff.
