I have owned this truck for over ten years, and it has served me well. From Baja to the Sierra this former desert racing chase truck turned Overlander is ready for your summer adventures. I drove this truck daily for the last year up until 2 weeks ago. Former King of the Hammers Staff Support Vehicle Tons of storage with multiple slideout drawers. I drove this truck from Reno to King of the Hammers (Johnson Valley California) in February through heavy snow with no issues. This truck would be great for Contractor use.

That's just straight up ************, for the $$$ that's got to be one of the best bang for the buck rigs you can get. Good luck with the sale and I see regret in your future once it's gone

Thanks
You might be right, I daily drove the truck the last year saving for my new rig. I replaced this with an AEV Chevy Bison, so I get to capitalize on everything I learned building this rig. Downsizing the platform does require me to revisit what I really need to take along and I don't have a good solution for hauling the kayaks just yet. I think my regret comes with weekend runs to the home improvement store as this truck was perfect for hauling lumber. That sheet of plywood I need this weekend is not going to fit in my Colorado.
