Tatonka is a complete road legal vehicle, unique because of its inbuilt capacity for extreme off road, salvage/rescue and multipurpose usage. The vehicle enables access to many areas that are inaccessible to standard type on road recovery vehicles.

Tatonka is a short wheel based 4x4 high-low ratio vehicle equipped with maximum sized flotation tyres front and rear, which give the vehicle superior grip and traction (not unlike a road legal tractor).

The rear differential is fitted with a Detroit locker unit supplying constant drive to both rear wheels simultaneously.

For more extreme off road situations, an auxiliary set of wheels and tyres permanently fitted with maximum grip studded chains, is available. The vehicle is fitted with recovery winches both front and rear. The front winch being an electric 18,000 lb straightpull capacity (remote controlled). The rear winch being a hydraulic 15,000 lb straightpull winch. Both winches are able to be operated simultaneously if required.

It is also equipped with a three stage crane which has a three tonne lifting capacity with a reach of 7.5 metres.
