If it hasn't already been said outright, a half ton truck will likely be AT its listed limit at 1700 pounds in the bed. So if your camper is 1500 and you weight, say, 200, then you are done. 3/4 ton will carry in the area of 4,000 payload, so 1500 will be a breeze

^^^ this. And, while Ford it technically the best selling truck in the US for the last 40 years. Be advised, the GMC Sierra and the Chevy Silverado are the same truck because they are both GM, but are counted separately because they are different name brands. Add those two manufacturers...

While that is true, people like to say that without realizing...no matter WHAT the natural resource that makes things live or go, humankind will be defending and stealing it. If our cars ran on poop, someone would be running around after my dog trying to pick it up, and my dog would turn...

Or...or Back to the Future DeLorean Time machine but as a truck. If I recall, the DeLorean wasn't big on performance either.

Well, it IS Christmastime, after all

Surprised, Eddie?

And could probably get an intern at an even lower rate!

CLAM BOX!!!! I used to have to drive 1A from Beverly up through to what used to be Cable Hospital, hook right on 133 through Essex and on to Gloucester. On my way back, I'd split off 133/ 1A and cut through Rowley. Hit the Agawam Diner. Nice ride. Good work on the truck. Nice that you...

Honest question: how is the Tundra in your picture better than my GMC? With all this weight we drive, it sort of is that much more important to drive carefully. I knew a guy who drove his truck like an old lady after getting off the highway. There were some twisty roads with dips and hills...

Wait, WHAT?! We have traffic lights and crosswalks in this country. The "need" to walk out in front of oncoming traffic doesn't really exist. I will agree that walking along a road with no sidewalk is a more likely way to get hit, but that would more often be a sideswipe or sideview mirror to...

I believe the old nautical term is "yield to tonnage"?

Ah. Thought stitch down and Goodyear were one and the same. Thanks al

Rugged. I had those same side steps on both my 90/91 short bed and my 94 full size k1500 Blazer Silverado

While I understand you did not mention me, I do just want to add fwiw: I'm in my mid-50's. I've worked for big companies, mom and pop shops, municipalities, union, and non-union and the smallest business I know - my own, where I was a one-man show and I can tell you this: That does not change...

I have and wear Blundstones near every day. I do have other boots but the ability to just slip these on is perfect for taking the dog out early in the morning in bad weather and slipping them off again at the 3 season porch in the way back in. My hiking boots are Oboz Bridgers but that's a...

Well, this IS an ops Manager position, albeit in name only... And they would just have to be very specific in documenting and switching out on-call time for in-shop time, as working over 40 hrs per week without overtime pay is a violation of FLSA for laborers, which this job really is. Payroll...

Ya. And after a rough customer service interaction, where would thier head be as they put the wheels back on?

I was thinking the same thing. Fleet mechanic and customer service are two different things. Im not sure what the market out in Denver is, but around here, you'd have a hard time attracting candidates for either one of those positions at that salary. I don't think the ad mentions benefits...

What's so outdated and impractical about a pickup truck? If anything, the Cybertruck is among the least practical truck. Sure its stats are more like a k1500 series but, all the other silly stuff like raked bed rails? Ranges from impractical to pain in the ass to useless. Something isn't...

The Rivian I like. Waiting to see what Canoo is really going to do. I like the look of that, too
