Does ramming jackasses that pull in front of you when you have the right a way count? This was last year, 13.5k in damage to my truck. Think they overcharged my insurance
Another load of thorn bushes and other assorted brush gone, and got the green boat moved out of the driveway so I can get the truck up. Now I can start pulling the heavier roots with the truck
Last May we had a Tornado rip through and knock some trees down at the entrance to my neighbor hood, struck while I was driving home. Had to "make my own way" to get in, immediately grabbed m chainsaw and the truck to go back and clear the road (and I'm not gonna let free fire wood escape!). Used the F150 with some old 1.5" mooring line to drag the trees off the road to then cut up. Blame the shoddy video on my "roommate."
With the travel trailer, I got 10.5 mpg - 11.0 mpg on the highway and about 9 mpg pulling in town traffic.
The Pop Up was 15 mpg pulling in town traffic. I haven't had it out on the highway yet.
When the Pop Up is open, it has the same useable interior space as the Travel Trailer. Here's a pic showing the length and width of the Pop Up compared to the Travel Trailer.
Allright. So I don't have any of the super heavy ones. But my truck works.
First run to the dump... With a family of five, this is a wee Costco run... Out of the 1600lbs payload, between the trailer, the 2 bunkbed sets and the meat payload, I was easily at 1400lbs of it. A bit of squat.. Another run to the dump... And yet another... Dump run. We cleared out the hoarder in the family! But don't worry.. Its not all work.
