Something similar to that would be handy on my haul and tow truck when I rework the front portion of the deck to handle cars and be able to get at least 2 on then and make it worthwhile to chase them down.

Mabey even squeeze a pop up camper on too when I have the smaller campers on the deck for a little extra revenue.

Do something like this to a wedge behind a pickup, that's just stupid. Several of Y'all already running pickups way beyond what they were made to do, not to mention the trailers.

I don't care how many sky dives you've got....... Until you've stepped into complete darkness at 800' wearing 95 lbs of equipment and 68 lbs of parachute, you just havn't lived.

pmmjarrett, Install a fixed head rack on your truck so you could haul the occasional Copart car. Forklift on--- forklift off and they pay pretty good.

Woopppsssss Just went back and saw your truck is a high rise sleeper No head rack for you

Saw a Guy today with a second Gen Dodge pulling about a 30 ft camper and had a 12 or 14 foot cargo trailer up on a headache rack. He had to be real close to 13' 6". Looked like it'd be handful in any wind.

I don't think I could squeeze a car through the doors so loading will be a bitch and I'd hate to bump my head on the bottom of a car when I streeeeeeeeeeeeetch in my 2 story Condo in the morning.

That's just getting stupid. I know a guy using a 2004 Ram 3500 for a haul and tow.... He sheared off wheel studs 3 times last year and is always broke down.


This things even a handfull in the wind as big of a sail as I'm carrying. The F800 was worse....... A one ton
