Old newbie is Back!!

Hey guys, I signed up years ago when I had my 1948 F-5 with a Holmes Wrecker, then I had a 1978 Ford/Jayco motor home which I just sold recently. Back in January I took my wife to the local RV show, well we came home with a 26ft travel trailer. I pulled it home with my Tahoe, but deep down I wanted a toy hauler to pull my Harleys in. The perfect answer is a used U-Haul 14 foot truck. I wasn't going to spend a ton of money on some truck with 200k on the clock. I took the U-Haul and the camper to Daytona for Bikeweek , pulls it perfectly the only complaint is it drinks gas.
What I got is a 2007 E-450 V10 with 108k on the clock. Runs like a watch as U-haul maintains them very well.


Looking forward to learning a lot and sharing info as well.

I need to figure out to do a Sig Oh well.
My name is Roger

Great use of an old UHaul!

Most get run into the ground in their first life, then again in their next life. Yours looks great! . . . and will be happy doing what you're doing with it!

Hopefully it is still running well!

Welcome back!
