no, i was looking for something older like this, with real long wheel base, like a bobtail box truck and pull off sleeper and put my own conversion back on and bumper tow whatever i am gonna pull. need it to double as a motor home and would like enough room in the back for a jeep or a mini. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ayphotohosting

i really like this but it isnt cheaper than my truck now so it defeats the purpose

fuq, guess i need to pay my membership then i can post it!!!

Needs about 4' added to the shifter and 18" cut out of the top and it would be money.

And none of these will ever be cheaper than your truck. Oil changes and brakes alone added to the 3-4mpg alone will kill you not counting clutches, air filters, DOT inspections that you still have to have for private use.

These things get bought because someone wants another toy.

Oh, and keep you eye out for a nascar trailer. Someone I know is looking for one.

If it really gets that mileage, then it is not pulling it very fast.

A friggin freightliner delivery truck with a 4cyl mercedes diesel doesn't even get that good. And they weigh next to nothing when they are empty.

There is a piece of the story missing somewhere.
