Chef just had a BDay so he got a new rig to transport his haul. I personally like driving this 3 liter turbo diesel for him. This 2021 is replacing a 2014 of the same type.

I’ll try to be unbiased - not easy. 20 years ago SIP was in a very different place and their own brands were a secondary production as they were OEM’s for some other big names at that time. That all started to change when the owners decided that to survive they had to stop OEM production and make more of their own brand. Since then they’ve invested in improving quality from design, to machining assembly and painting. Of you look back at other brands 20 years ago many had products they wouldn’t offer today. The world has moved on hugely.

Big ass pickups is one thing I miss from working in the States. Personally my preferences was the f150. Remember towing the bosses 15 tonne artic John deer with his dodge. Had a duel wheel dodge aswell, but it kept shearing hub bolts for some reason.
