|
|
Guys help me out here, I NEED a CHEAP PICK UP to pull my boat before I slap a hitch on the back of my Infiniti G35x, shes got all wheel drive but something about sinking a very expensive luxury car up to the rear quaters in water that doesnt sit right with me
All I want is a truck that starts and has 4wd (and even that i may not care about) I dont care if the body is trashed it doesnt even need windows it doesnt matter, one purpose and one purpose only to pull my boat, my partner isnt going to be able to make all these tourneys this year and I just moved back to Fall River, it will take him an hour just to get to my house not to mention to where we r fishing |

This might sound crazy but make your hitch extendable for when you arrive at ramp. If this was a heavy boat it would be a pain but i think your car topper should be fairly manageable for this.
Crazy, But almost anything is attainable.
Custom extendable hitch or more ins. and reg for another vehicle,Hmm
Actually you will be like the pros and have a personal tow vehicle just for your boat. You can put graffix on it and make it badass.

| There is a truck up my way that's been for sale for the last month or so..I'll do a drive by later and grab a photo and a number for you. It is like a jeep cherokee or some such, not great looking but a bit 4 wheeled out by the looks of it, meaning they raised the truck up a bit etc..looks like it would handle most if not all terrain lol. I haven't been by the house in about a week or so so dunno for sure it is even still there but will defo have a look tonight. Also dunno what they are asking but I, for some reason didn't think it was a crazy amount..again I'll bag details and number tonight |

Not intending to get personal...how cheap is cheap? I got curious and ran a search on searchtempest. It searches craigslist by whatever distance you choose. There seem to be some decent trucks out there for relatively short cash.
