The best 4 x 4 x far has to be ........................................UNIMOG what a tool red diesel, free road fund licensee, 56 mph easily will tow what ever you can put behind it went on a land fill site to pull a 8 wheeler skip wagon of but had a tractor c/w bowser already chained to him, also stuck backed up the moggy to the front of the tractor hooked up me heavy chain put in cross locks and front and rear diff locks and eased the pair out nice steady pull (not the go for it spin the wheels and get me self stuck by digging wheel holes)
ho did i mention i also had 4 tonnes of ballast on boardIf I have to explain you wouldn't understand

I use a GMC 2500HD with a Duramax diesel (Isuzu). An Alison 5 sp auto and a gooseneck trailer (14K). The truck is rated at 9200 GVW. I could tow a 22K GN, but then there are some liscensing issues, so the rig I have is good enough. Picture shows a rented Bobcat trailer.
