I think it’s bad enough now anyone can jump in a modern 4wd and put 3.5 T behind it without knowing the basics.
If they drop the 2500 under 4500kg that means it can be loaded with a 5th wheel to bring GCM over ten tonne but can be legally driven on a car licence?

This video is relevant to the thread. And relevant to those who denigrate the Ram 1500s spec in comparison to the Thai specials. At the end of the day physics trump optimistic on paper figures that are used for marketing purposes.


When you are a car company and your aim is to sell vehicles, I think you would lower the GVM by the 30kg to open up your market to sell more. Regardless of what some people might think of the licensing system.
