I owned a 2013 fuso with all the Overland accoutrements. Cool truck, get alot of attention, however for freeway/good roads in North America it's dreadfully underpowered. The 4x4 HD truck segment in America really can't be beat. Tons of power and decent payloads, aswell they have the gearing to run at 75mph+.

I quickly sold the fuso, as living in northern Canada and the nearest place Id like to visit being 1000kms away, 90km/h won't work. My next chassis choices will either be E-450gas (4x4 conversion$20kcad) or F550 with 7.3gas or the new chev 6500(emissions deleted). Im 33 so the "go slow and enjoy the drive" mantra of the retirement stage guys dosnt work for me.

Jeremy Clarkson says it best "SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED".
