How often do you use your truck as a truck?

All of the time especially when shooting - recent pic from a Sentinel Concepts carbine class - 6 rifles, roughly 6k of ammo for a weekend

 

Tonight's application was pulling the little trailer to the lake:


If I'm not camping, I'm doing home improvement stuff. If I'm not doing home improvement, I'm hauling tree clippings to the recycler/dump. I wanted a sporty small car or even a 4x4 SUV for years, but just can't do it. I honestly don't know how people keep up with chores without a truck.

 

All the time. It's the main reason I traded my jeep. Home Depot runs are much easier now and so is bringing firewood when camping.

 

Just got back from a week in the mountains Camping and fishing, this shot was taken while I was still setting up camp before everyone else got there .... Picked the best spot too fishing was just a short hike from location. when not camping the truck hauls plenty of stuff for other projects.

 

Best part about this sequence is the "Save the manuals" sticker.

 

Regularly.
Kinda pussy to own it only for cream puffing:

​

 

Weekly. I can’t imagine how we managed all these years without it!







Actually, this is how I managed all these years.

 

and Now I want one of those stickers .....

 

It’s just my space, you know, for after you are married and have kids and all that.


Well... OK- we pack so much crap when we go camping and on vacations that it was really necessary! Plus for towing our travel trailer and home improvement large item hauling, etc.

 

How often do you use your truck as a truck?

Very seldom. I prefer to use it as a Robot Transformer.

 

After buying a home in the suburbs it was a must have for hauling new items we bought, dump runs, and also hauling items for the garden/yard

Love this truck

 

Realize this is a 3rd gen question, but I use my 2nd gen for lots of landscape work. Here’s some pics of it loaded down with mulch for a customer.

 

Almost every day. Use the 4WD almost weekly.

But really, my best girl wouldn't ride in anything else.

 

I use mine to carry a lawnmower. I built a couple wooden ramps from 2x12’s. Fits perfectly with the tailgate up.

 

As often as I drive my pooch

 

Almost weekly. Camping, kayaking, dump run, and home owner errands then everyday in the winter to haul bags of sand!

 

Awesome!

 

Great thread...I love seeing these trucks used as trucks and not mall crawlers.

I should’ve taken pictures the last two months but I’ve hauled...

35 cases of milk...1300 lbs
10 half-ton loads of river rock
4 loads of Versa Lock retaining wall blocks 20 @ 82lbs. (1640 lbs) per load
Multiple other loads of bushes that I pulled out of the ground.

Best thing about it all...it’s a company vehicle that I’m free to use for personal business.

I use mine 5 days per week to haul my RC planes and related gear to the flying field. I have driven trucks all my adult life (now 73 ). I just love them. Mine have all been 2X4 because, I never go off road and I live in a mild climate.
