New Guy

Hello everyone. I just signed up because I’m searching for a solid square body to use as a tow rig.

I fell in love with a regular cab dually back in the 90s that was for sale beside the road. I was 15 and learning to drive. Obviously, it was too much truck for me back then, and too expensive. However, I’ve been a fan ever since.

My Wife and I are into rock crawling / off roading and in need of a tow rig.

I’m looking for a solid double cab dually. I love regular cabs, but need a spot for our two dogs.

Anyway, you’ll see me looking around here, doing research, and asking stupid NEWB questions.

I’m no stranger to wrenching. I grew up working on cars, and building hot rods with my Father.

This is my current rig that I’m looking to tow. Bought new in 2013. Rebuilt it just about every winter since lol. There’s not much that hasn’t been touched at this point...

I already sent @Paladin a message about his truck. That looks like JUST what I’m looking for.

There are some trucks like you may be interested in on craigslist. Just search there and also there may be some here.

Thanks guys. Oh, believe me, I’ve been scouring CL, Letgo, FB Marketplace, etc.

How far are you willing to go and what's your budget? Here's a super nice one here in Northern California. $9500

I’m figuring that I’m going to have to do a fly in and drive home deal. There are no clean ones in the Northeast. Not that I can find anyway.

Well, there was ONE for $25k...

$5k would be the Max right now most likely.

And by “clean” I mean not rotten. Doesn’t need to be all shiny.

Welcome to the site.

Alright. I’ve officially given up on finding a solid square body. I’m now looking for one that doesn’t need TOO much rot repair... lol
