hi guys, i'm currently looking at buying a lorry for carrying oil palm fruits.

i'm just a small holder, a month production is about 60-70 ton.

so i need your advice on what lorry is best suited for the job.

i would want a tipper(no need to unload), 4X4 (hilly road and bad dirt road condition when raining) and a lorry that can carry a load of at least 5 ton.

i'm currently using a single cab toyota hilux to ferry the fruits, it can carry about 2.3ton the max (but i have to unload the fruits myself).

If your internal road is big and palm tree age around 5yr, u can buy isuzu 4x4 but price will be 150k upward after dumper. My exp is lorry just cannot handle very bad hilly road condition, but u can use low range 1,2,3. Mitsubishi fuso 4x4 not good ( engine too small cc) Toyota 4x4 15B should fit u need.

I am looking for same truck for FFB transport too, do you get the solution? which brand lorry truck do you purchase? any problem you meet with the truck? I am looking for Isuzu 4x4 tipper truck too. I heard Hino not bad but fuel consumption very bad compared to Isuzu .

is Isuzu 4x4 truck too high and unstable for bad condition road?
