Absolutely Love It! If the roads and parking lots here in Hawaii weren't so narrow I'd get one!

Been wanting one for a while. My titan has been a great truck, but it just isn't big enough to take care of all the work I do on my property. This one will haul 10 tons in the bed on good roads and 5 tons on any terrain. And it should not get stuck on my driveway. |

I can still use it to carry the same things, just will have to use my tractor bucket to scrap stuff out. The dump trucks also cost at least twice what I paid for this one. |

LMAO, it has a 8.3 liter Cummins turbo diesel with 5 speed automatic. It should get between 8-10 mpg, and will cruise at 65mph. |

Trying to get debt free and the green house is on hold till that happens. This truck is a step in getting debt free, my yearly costs should go down by getting this truck. Plates are cheaper, insurance is cheaper. |

Man I don't know. It will be a while though. More than a year. Just going to run my small ap green house and my dirt garden till then. I was working off shore when I started to build it, and I was getting a 100 dollar a day bonus for working out there. That was paying for the greenhouse. I lost that position (the company went to a different helicopter company). So the funds for the project dried up. |
