In agreeance with others there. Think the LRDG obtained Chevy 15cwt trucks from the Egyptian army then made Canadian Chevy 30cwt purpose built. As for SAS, in desert they only had modified jeeps to the best 9or worst) of my knowledge and then drove or legged it to rendezvous with LRDG extraction by said trucks...
