Maybe I need a truck.
Let's put it this way: I've gotten more and more involved over the past 12 months with tractoring and all its related projects, implements, materials, detritus and trips; and my primary load carrier is the back seat of my Mustang convertible. I've been creative, but it's getting to me.
So, maybe I need a pickup truck. I've had cars, vans, small SUV's--but never had and know nothing about pickup trucks. So I'm looking for suggestions and advice.
I'm going to try to make this simple. Here is what I don't want: the fully-accessorized, super-powered, wet dream "Rolls Royce" of pickup trucks. This will be a second hand vehicle on a tight budget.
Here are the minimum requirements:
1. 4x4
2. Can pull an 18' trailer with 8,000 lbs. of tractor and tractor implements on it.
3. Can be used as a commuter vehicle that will be parked in a parking garage.
4. Won't scare away the wife from driving it.
5. Is reliable, durable and problem free.
Thanks.
