2000 ranger




33% more hualing capacity

1997 GMC Safari extended with both back seats out. Huge amount of room with access from back and side. More space than some pick-ups with toppers. My junk stays dry and I can lock it all up.

1995 Dodge Ram 1500 3.9L V-6 5 speed 8 foot bed, nasty lil gas saver with the v6 and full size bed makes it an awesome lil scrapping machine

97 dodge ram LWB... 2 trailers and dolly.. or and a great wife that understands...lol

I love this thread, but it makes me jealous.

I want to buy a new car next year and (providing I start the new job I'm after) I have been thinking about getting a Range Rover. They are built near me and I always liked the idea of buying from a company that employs locally . . . BUT . . . I read this thread a few days ago and it goy me thinking more about Mitsubishi Warriors and other similar vehicles. Space in the back to scrap and do other manly stuff, but also I would have plenty of seats to still use it as a family car.

If your going to get a new vehicle, and its not a pickup I would suggest getting a trailer also. I have a pickup and I only use it to haul certain items, the rest goes into my trailer. Less stress on the vehicle.

3/4 ton Chevy for local loading/hauling. 3/4 ton Dodge diesel for long distance/heavy loads and a 16' open trailer with gate. The trailer has been the best investment I have made. Bought it about 5 years ago for construction work. Using it more now than ever.

Picked up a '88 Chevy 2500 4x4 350 auto. Brother tells me it's a heavy half. I don't know enough about these to know. It says 2500 on the door, but he seems to think that because it's a 6 lug, it's only a heavy half.

Hopefully it will serve me well.

Paid $900. Has a decent rack, newer tires, and brand new tool box on it.

Yeah true 3/4 tonnes are 8 lug like the 3500. At least thats what I know about them.

Really nice looking truck for that kind of money.

It's fairly straight on both sides. Left front fender has a crease. Says he hit a deer. Has the typical paint peel here and there.

I might toss up a few more pics later.

Finally got a picture. Took this one when I put it for sale

Thumbs up. Very nice!

thrsxs, That's too high class for this forum. Just kidding, nice ride. I'd be riding all over in style and not towing any cars.

2008 Kia Sedona

83 Silverado up until a couple weeks ago when it gave up the ghost :-( Looking to get a 93 Ford E 350. I will have to change the way I do things with the switch to a van but the deal is to good to pass up.

I use my toy hauling 01 f350 diesel. Cost a little more in fuel I guess but It dont get weighed down as easy and I dont have any problems getting up to speed.
