Released to the logging industry in late 2007, the Portatif 8x8 was a huge asset to any operation. It had power. It had the strength. It was able to take corners other logging trucks could only dream of!

Features include engageable AWD, Welmade's patented engageable Reer-Steer System (RSS), Steadying control arms, a side-tilt bed, and a standard snorkel on every 8x8 that rolled off the lot. Also included was a spare tire, and easy to adjust electric mirrors, and cruise control. was a A fan favourite featured only on the 8x8 version was the customizable options on the truck, such as various horns and roof lights.

To operate; use pitch and roll for basic movements, Ag1 for AWD (must be engaged for the snorkel to function), Ag2 for RSS, Ag3 and Vtol to raise and lower the control arms, Ag4 and VTOL slider to lift and lower the bed, Ag5-7 for all light control, and Ag8 for the main engine. Turn off Ag1 and 8 while driving to turn on cruise control.

Edit: Forgot to mention trim, which adjusts the mirrors. Not a critical control, but neat to have.
