Watch for Ambos for overweight ratings.
makes hard to bring down load rating for
normal rego.
just a point.

Good point. I have given this little thought. Hopefully the red mist stays at bay near auction close.

3,650 / 5,600;  TARE/GVM as they come; room for stuff = 2 tonne.

3,450 / 4,500; TARE/GVM with some bits stripped and downrated = 'normal rego' = 1 tonne payload. Which is little crazy because I'd buy it only to load up and go walk-about. The GS carries that much (but no luxurious hard body on the back!).

If you want a 6x6, get your LR license and be done with it.
If you are worried about the rego cost of a light truck, perhaps a 4x4 would better suit.

My Air Defence tares at 3900 kg, I think the Ambo will tare heavier.

Thanks for the link - I have not seen this before. I'm not sure who the right person is, but the REMLR info for the 6x6 models needs to be updated to reflect this - as it is sitting at the numbers I quoted for all 6x6 variants.

Thanks, this info is very helpful.

For the record I'm not worried, already have a GS, and agree that LR licence and plated GVM are the only way to go if stepping up to 6x6.

Not hidden well enough, obviously. Need to get some Ol' Pros in there to park 'em up properly. (Not calling you an Old pro, Dave.  )

I'm old enough to consider being  called a 'Pro' as a compliment. In my time 'Operator' held the same level of esteem.
Still not the worst thing i've ever been called, not by a long shot

I feel for you mate.
Tell you what; every time I kick 'Sleazy' in the guts next week, I'll send the vibe to you? Not hard with all those Isuzu vibes

[Welby]

Thanks mate, its the thought that counts
