Then....... Lunch!

What's up guys? Just had to pop in here and remind myself that there is, indeed, something more to life than drywall compound and sawdust.

Hope you're all doing well.

Hey Nate! Welcome back...:-X04 :-X04

Geo stays home this year. Its great to have along but I'm just too darn long! I would be over 65' long with this new 5er, 65' is the legal limit.

I'm thinking custom roof rack. Park it on top of the truck. From the pic, it looks like it won't be any taller than the trailer, so no clearance issues.

Or how much longer would you be? Rig up a towing system where the Geo sits close to vertical to save a couple of feet?

I would say park the geo in the bed like that pic of the smart car in the bed of that dodge dually. But the bed will have the 5th wheel in it lol

You guys funny! I have a tongue weight of over 4K now, yea, lets kill the OX!! :eek::eek::eek::eek: Oh, I know, I'll put on a set of those F550 springs that Darin put on, that should do it. All kidding aside, I did see a roof rack with a 4 runner on it that cleared the front of the 5er. I need a semi!!

That doesn't seem ridiculous at all. Single cab 2wd with 272k miles? Seems about right.

I've noticed in the last year or so that these truck aren't going for much anymore

I guess the term "new" is relative... I saw the list of new things and the price and it doesn't add up to me. Oh well... Not like I have the money right now anyway

Depends. Up this way I've seen these trucks sell at $15k and up or they are practically giving them away for nothing. It's one extreme or the other in my market, anyhow. I gave what I felt was reasonable for my CCLB given how clean it was and its history...but that's few and far between when it comes to sellers.

That's a decent rig, but will take 4-6k in mods to get it where it needs to be }>

I had mine priced based on new trans, new EXPENSIVE mods, Zero rust, and overall condition. I didn't get one phone call. That's alright...she stays :D
