Its subjective really. Trucks are tools and are purpose built to do a specific task. A dryvan spec truck of any brand wouldn’t last a week out in the oil patch or the bush. It’d get shaken to pieces.
On the flip side, a truck built to handle a beating in the bush would be extremely overbuilt for general freight. It’d be much harder on fuel and so heavy that you’d never be able to scale the same loads as a highway spec rig.
Brand really means nothing. You can get just about any truck built to handle whatever you need it to do. Trucks aren’t like cars where you get 2 or 3 powertrain options. You can literally spec just about every aspect of a truck the way you want it. Suspension, frame rail thickness, engine, transmission, axle ratings, gear ratios, lockers, driveshafts, steer axle/steer tire rating, etc. Literally dozens of combinations. You can get a Cascadia built to pull a dryvan at 80k lb gross weight on the highway and you can get one built to pull 140k lb super b’s through the mountains.
