    So. RTTs, where do we get them around here? How much are they? Is there a used market?

    Man, I want a trailer...

    RTT is dope. Looks so overland-ey. You could build an expo trailer out of the back half of a ranger chassis and lift it on add a leafs.

    That sounds good.

    I was thinking of building from scratch. A 4' x 8' flat bed on a 6000lb axle with electric brakes and same wheels as the truck. Then I could swap in box sides, ramps etc. for whatever I need at the time. Of course there would be an expo module set up for the RTT! The Ranger box option is way simpler and far more likely.

    Edit, I wonder how hard it would be to get the back half of a 2nd gen frame....

    Judging from my experiance with rangers, pretty likley. Mine cracked a little behind the cab (it was an 04 in 2012). if you can find one that had been in a heavy front end colision you could probably get it for under 500.

    We hit up two places today, some where in middle Sackville and then the pipeline. Andrew can do the pipeline in his tracker when it's not snowy, there's a few iffy spots. Muddy Myra might be easier for you.

    It would be a time!!! Nothing a stock taco couldn't do out there today on our adventures if you went out in a small group. Might just have to do it a little slower.

    Exactly! I'm always game to do the simpler trails if it means I'm getting someone addicted to wheeling ;)

    It happened to Andrew.. He even said the other day "going wheeling was a big mistake".
