considering a newer truck, there's a couple of f150 XLTs (a 2019 and a 2020) with the 3.3l 6spd CCSB 4x4 with around 45,000kms (27,000 miles?) also a couple of ram 1500s with the 3.6l 8spd DCLB, a 2019 with 45,000kms and some options and a base 2022 tradesman with 17,000kms all are one owner...

this is why my 2009 silverado is a 4.8l and a manual shift transfer case. also the 5.3l express gets a bit better MPG than the awd 4.3l astro van it replaced

i drive a 2004 awd cargo van at work. bought at 260k kms from a government auction a few years back for a song, it now has 360k. its needed one set of brakes, three wheel bearings. a front brake hose ruptured while driving and the mechanic said it was poorly designed (banjo tight at full lock?)...

i saw that ad and thought of you as well :)

just with the 8foot bed

i had an "old man tan" 2003 ram 1500 like yours (mine had the 4.7l) before my current truck and i loved it, if the body hadn't rusted away i'd still be driving it

2009 Silverado

i just did this on my 2009 chevy, one wire was for the brake controller power and one was for charging the trailer battery while driving

I had my heart set on a Canadian double cab SB sport 6MT until I looked at the back seat leg room....

I saw this ad and though of you... https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/kamloops/1986-gmc-s15/1395330462?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true

square wheel wells are great! they just mean the tires will fit the same through out the suspensions travel :rolleyes:

just an FYI, the aluminum(2015+) ecoboost F150s have a centered licence plate

power wagons have dismal payload compared to normal 2500s... just something to think about. I think its funny, the guy asks about a 1500 ram to commute with, do some light towing/light off roading and it turns into "get a power wagon"

i think we have a new "Viking" LOL
