Trucks from India

GV-USA | Global Vehicles USA

Apparently, they're planning on bringing trucks to North America from the Mahindra company in India. I've never heard of them before today, but if you read up on the company history, they used to build Willys Jeeps for the Indian market. First using the Radar O'Reilly method of shipping parts and assembling them locally, then later they started making their own parts. They were making CJs through the 1990's.

So, why do I care? Well, the Mahindra truck is going to use a small, fuel-efficient diesel for one thing. For another, it's apparently going to be the lowest-priced truck on the market. Might be a good alternative for a low-cost basic workhorse. Yeah, they're kind of ugly, but for a work truck who cares?
