There were lots of things to consider...
- The height from the turntable (for the 5th wheeler) on the back of the truck to the ground has to be below a certain height, or the truck will be towing the rig on an angle.
- There needs to be room from the 5th wheeler pin to the 5th wheeler so the end of the unit doesn't hit the truck.
- GCM (Gross Combined Mass)
- GVC (Gross Vehicle Mass)
- Enough horse power to tow around 7 and half tonne.
Dale from Star Trucking in Richmond has found an "Iveco" truck which seems to meet all the criteria.
