I don’t think I ever owned a bike that projected a hill billy , probably dating my cousin, two sandwiches short of a picnic image .

Remember to each their own.

Tire poke without extending fenders is clearly illegal. Lifting/lowering is a harder ticket. I'd be ok with modifications that move bumper height outside of a set range to work the same as dui. Insurance doesn't pay as you did it to yourself.

Times change. When I was growing up, having the tires sticking out past the fenders was laughable. Just meant you couldn't afford to do it right.

Not the exact car...but VERY close to what passed me...

Please look at me.

Way back when I had a Datsun PL620. If I couldn't get the job done with that I'd borrow my buddy's one-ton GMC.

My B2600.

I'm getting pedantic here, I know, but I'm not dragging 1000+ lbs onto my wee tailgate, thanks. And if there's two of you, you'd be done unloading, bucket-brigade-style, before you'd finished monkeying with the rope!

I have a Tommygate on my F2Shitty work truck. Makes loading easy.

I just looked at the prices of Ram 2500 and holy cannoli! I could buy a house up north or out east for that! How in the heck do people afford to buy a new vehicle all the time, my goodness gravy.

You dont want a 250/2500 for a daily driver - they are work trucks. I drive both Ford and a Dodge heavies - they are bone rattling and guzzle fuel.

Only reason for getting one would be to tow a 5th wheel if we decide to go adventuring across N. America...we're also looking at Class Cs with a toad...

Why not a B they are made for that. I don't think we have paid for a campsite yet either. We did most of the Western US last summer.

Too small for my liking...I really enjoy (and need) a full bath...

As in bathtub or just a proper shower enclosure instead of a wet head?

To be pedantic, the easiest way to load and unload a pallet from a pickup is with a forklift or skid steer, but you have to be extra careful with a cap on, especially with a skid steer .

If she's like us, a dry bath with room to turn around. It's nice to be able to use the washroom without a wet floor, or shower without sitting on a toilet.
