My Next Pickem Up Truck

Bill, what model is that? I didn't know that BMW made a vehicle like that. After looking at the license plate, I guess I won't see any over here anyway.

Bob,
I snagged the pic off the internet. The narrative told what model it was that was modified to make that puppy but I don't remember.

the bed height is way more than my trailer. I think I will stick to the gooseneck and the Dodge. but I am very interested in learning more about the long ramps, actual length and what the capacity is.

Ramps are 10' lonf, 16" wide and hold 5,000 lbs per pair.

How high is your trailer bed?

trailer is 19in at the beavertail, rest of the deck is 24in, FC bed height at the rear is 44 inches, so kinda tall. its a 9ft x 7ft bed. Where did you find your 10ft ramps?

it kinda sticks its butt up in the air. it has a 11350 GVW , as it was a fire truck when it was younger. I have not yet loaded it with anything that makes it squat

Paula and I have had a Tacoma on order since early October. We optioned it out with all the bells and whistles. It’s a 4 door Off Road TRD .
The idea is it’s an off road capable pickup for all the adventures chasing fossils that Paula will do while still being comfortable and cushy inside.
Being new and comfy we can take it on long trips and being a pickup we can bring home tractor parts we might find :) and yes Paula is right there with me with that purpose in mind.
This will be mostly her vehicle.
Now if the world will return to normal just long enough for Toyota to build this for us. :roll:

I have never been able see why Toyota thought that particular combination of letters was a good idea. I can only come up with one way to pronounce it as a word.
