RAM 2500 Heavy Duty — gooseneck-capable tow vehicle for large horse floats
Equestrian

Horse floats & goosenecks.

Two horses or six, straight-load or angle-load, bumper-pull or gooseneck — a Heavy Duty RAM or Ford Super Duty holds its lane at weight, pulls up straight, and does it with the family and gear on board, legally. This is the truck the horse world moves up to when the wagon taps out.

  • Stable at highway speed with living-quarters floats
  • Gooseneck and fifth-wheel ready
  • Tow and carry at the same time — no payload compromise
Ford F-450 Platinum Plus — fifth wheeler and heavy caravan tow vehicle
Touring

Big caravans & fifth wheelers.

Off-grid vans, triple-axle tourers and American-style fifth wheelers sit past the limit of most tow vehicles before the water tanks are even full. Our range starts where the 3.5 tonne wagons stop — so the van you actually want is back on the table.

  • 4.5 t braked on a standard 70 mm ball
  • Fifth-wheel hitches fitted in our workshop
  • Integrated trailer brake controllers and tow tech from factory

Marine

Boats that need a real truck.

Wakeboats, game boats and cruisers come out of the water heavy and wet. Boat ramps are where towing setups get found out — low-range control, weight over the rear axle and serious braked capacity make the difference between a launch and a story.

  • Confident on steep, wet ramps
  • Tow rig and family hauler in one vehicle
  • Trusted by marine dealers we share customers with

Excavators, skid steers, scissor lifts and site gear — plant-hire operators and builders run our cab-chassis trucks because one vehicle tows the machine, carries the crew and wears the company brand. Tier-one mine-spec builds available.

  • Service bodies and trays fitted to spec
  • Fleet and business packages

  • One supplier: truck, build, compliance, warranty
  • Australia-wide delivery

Towing questions, answered.

What can an American pickup tow that a LandCruiser or Ranger cannot?

Most Australian wagons and utes are rated to a 3.5 tonne braked maximum. Our Ford Super Duty and RAM Heavy Duty range is rated to 4.5 tonnes on a standard 70 mm ball straight off the lot, and substantially more again in gooseneck and fifth-wheel configurations — while carrying passengers and payload legally at the same time.

Are these trucks legal to drive on an Australian licence?

Yes. Every truck is converted to right-hand drive and certified ADR compliant before delivery. Most of the range is driveable on a standard car licence; we confirm licence class for the heavier cab-chassis models when we quote.

What is the best truck for towing a large horse float?

For two to three horse straight-load and angle-load floats a RAM 2500 or Ford F-250 is comfortable. For four horse or larger gooseneck floats we recommend the RAM 3500 or Ford F-350 and above — stability at weight is what these trucks are built for.

Can I tow construction machinery or a plant trailer?

Yes — plant-hire and construction businesses are a large part of our customer base. RAM 3500, RAM 5500, Ford F-450 and F-550 cab-chassis trucks move excavators, skid steers and site equipment daily, with a GCM of up to 19,000 kg on the RAM 5500.

Towing capacities vary by model, configuration and hitch type — we confirm exact figures for your trailer and use case when we quote. More detail on compliance and licensing lives in our FAQ.
