The price is comparable to a 1/2 ton truck, factory 4x4, diesel, tons of room...

I wish they would tow a carhauler and a samurai... And they were 1/2 the price they go for!

silly how those big things get 50% better mpg than my little ranger pickup.

Can I get a 4x4 dually extended wheel base? I dont see why one wont pull the sammy, there is a guy down here who hauls a skid loader with one.

The new ones are rated for 7500lbs I see. The old ones (like I could afford) are 5000lbs. Sammy and trailer is 5100 lbs. I don't like pushing things like that. I don't know but suspect you'd need a weight distributing hitch which precludes an aluminum trailer.

Sweet rigs though.
