After all y'all's comments about the 4WD, and the fact that I'm not too desirous
of a white truck, I went with this one:

Hopefully they'll leave that page up for a few days.

I drove it home last night. It drives well. But, it's definitely in a bigger
league than the 4Runner.

Now if I can just find a nice place for the "Save the Bay" bumper sticker.

I, for one, would be very interested in frequent updates, opinions,
and squawks. I'm seriously considering a K2500 or K3500 dually for a
replacement for the current truck....

One problem with dualies is that unless you're loaded with
something, they can be fairly worthless on snow, ice or even heavy
rain. Too much flotation in the back end.

Of course, you might not have a problem w/that out on the east coast.

Never had a problem with that... the trick is narrow tires. Hugely
wide tires, the wider the better, make sense on sand, not so with the
Piedmont hard red clay and snow and ice....

I've read that dualies cut down on your mileage significantly. Are you sure you
need 'em?

Probably not. I haven't found that they cut down on mileage, but they
are damn expensive to buy. They add a LOT of stability....

I'm really leaning toward super singles....

One of the joys of owning a small boat that can be trailered is that you
don't need a humongous truck to tow it.

Or slip rent.


I have "free" use of one side of a lake boathouse for one boat. The
other boat incurs some heavy slip fees. Hey, it's only money, and if I
didn't spend it on the boat, the crooks on wall street would have taken
it. Why should they have fun with my money? :)

You'll fit right in here.

There are others who don't trust the con artists of wall street?
I'm shocked!

Wayne,
You might want want to look at something like this for something to carry
on your boat. It's not street legal but it might be suitable for your needs.

I had a 500Watt version up until 4 days ago when someone a stranger decided
they needed it more than I did. I ordered this one from walmart.com at $284.
I plan on keeping this one chained at night when left outdoors.

Interesting. Does Walmart carry their complete line? Can't find
the weight spec on their web site but notice they have some pedal
powered models which is nice from a legality standpoint.
Around here I'd get killed in traffic however. You've got to be able
to stay ahead of anyone who can hit you. :-)

It's weight is about 60 lbs. I wouldn't dare take one of these out in
traffic. It would be fine for sidewalks though. Local laws permitting.
