In their battle to save money, make things lighter, make things cheaper, and save more money and make more profit - are they really as strong as companies make them out to be. or infact as strong as they used to be?

Many dual cabs seem to have WaY too much overhang these days from rear axle to rear of chassis or tub.. leverage = MAYDAY.

This isnt a dig at any one brand, theres photos all over the interwebs of all sorts of utes with shagged chassis'



Edit: interesting post

That's because land crusiers are driven by princesses who wouldn't carry anything in them.....
