AtkiPete Lynch has kindly sent me this picture of a  rather l....o....n....g  wheelbase Isuzu in the rain downunder and says: "G'day Brian, You have to wonder what some of these truck bodybuilders are thinking about?" Mmmm, well perhaps not the bodybuilder Pete. Maybe it was what the operator asked for---the boydbuilder might simply have been following instructions....still it does mean they won't have to worry about the rear overhang (what rear overhang?). And as the Japanese rigid has the drive axle so far back it should make for some 'interesting' loading requirements in order to get everything right within gross and individual axles ratings...tyre scrub on the drive axle might be an issue too....

That would be either of these models from Isuzu: FTR, FVR or FVD!
