                                                                       Above: The model looks rather impressive in its new colour.


        It is always interesting when companies change their name and there can be a number of reasons for
        this. One such company is the former Terex Trucks who have rebranded their range of articulated
        haul trucks with the new name of Rokbak.

        T     he  RA  40  articulated  haul
              truck  is  the  largest  in  the
              range,  with  a  maximum
              payload  of  38  metric  tons
        and  a  heaped  capacity  of  23.3
        cubic  metres.  The  444hp  Scania
        DC13 6-cylinder turbo-charged diesel
        engine conforms to the latest emission
        standards,  powering  the  Allison
        HD4560 fully automatic transmission
        with  planetary  gearing,  electronic
        control  with  six  forward  and  one
        reverse  gear  providing  a  maximum
        travel speed of 40mph and a reverse
        speed of 4.8mph.
           There have already been several
        versions of the flagship Terex Trucks
        hauler  produced  by  NZG  and  the
        “Generation  10”  derivative  which
                                                             Above:
                                                             Rear detailing of the model is
                                                             impressive, like the protected lights.
