For this vehicle the register lists a six-cylinder engine of 6,690 cm³. Kerb weight is 2,898 kg, gross vehicle weight 3,500 kg. The vehicle has four wheels, a wheelbase of 3,570 mm and a width of 1,980 mm.

A displacement of 6,690 cm³ in a vehicle of this class points to a large engine designed for towing or heavy loads rather than economical everyday use. The four-wheel drive additionally prepares the vehicle for unpaved or winter surfaces, as found on construction sites and farms. Despite a gross vehicle weight of only 3,500 kg and the resulting N1 classification, the 602 kg difference to kerb weight leaves a decent payload margin for a pickup.

For a used four-wheel-drive pickup of this type, check the condition of the transfer case and drive shafts, the frame and running gear for corrosion, especially after winter road-salt exposure, and the clutch and gearbox of the large-displacement engine. The brake system should also be checked for proper operation under a full load, along with the transfer case and axle seals for oil leaks.
