The reason we don't see it is because Aussies get ALL THE RAD STUFF. Solution? Go get one made! They aren't prominent in the expo world in the USA YET but in the commercial world they are out there. Search for Veterinary or Farrier truck bodies and canopies. Huge cottage market for horse stuff. Lots of country builders doing unbelievable work for a good price. Very popular in horse country. Here are a few hot leads to get you cooking:

Alum line and Highway products will make anything you want as well if you have the patience.
One major thing I see is this: so many smallish trucks I see are overloaded. I don't care if they rate them higher GVWR in Au. Sometimes a Tacoma is just not enough truck. You can get some decent cargo in F150, 1500 or Tundra land. But I'd recommend going to a 250 2500 at least. Not much bigger, better power train options and actually engineered to GVWR. Slightly less mileage for 4x torque? Yep. Go big IMHO.
