Expect in the future we'll see people buying these Chinese trucks though as they certainly appear loaded with all sorts of goodies
although personally (and based on experience buying Chinois-hardware)
I'd want to see them established before I spent on them.

Which Motorhome Practical Motorhome and Motorhome Motorcaravan Monthly MMM are the 'big' three in the market. The only recognised camping magazines are aimed primarily at the hill walker type of camper.
The Land Rover mags as said before are worth a letter. There isn't a specific Jap pickup mag that I know of.

A standard 60 word letter sent to all would be good for their letters pages.
