Wood Truck -looking to acquire (1 Viewer)

[juane]

I've been dragging a trailer through the woods long enough.
So I'm putting the word out for a 3/4 ton 4x4 standard cab long bed manual transmission highway-drivable beater.
Preferance for gasoline and Chevy. But I'll consider anything given how hard it seems to be to find a suitable rig.
Thanks!

Not that I know of. Up here the firewood cutters grab trucks like that up. Then they just kill them.

Indeed, kill them dead. Every yard around here has at least one solid-front-axle-vintage truck carcass, if not ten.

Those woodyards are so picky

They aren't even looking at the IFS rigs and look how well they're used in other parts of the worlds.

Ya, but, the first 5 are not Hilux. The first five are also solid axle.

Funny you mention it because I'm actually looking to buy a Goldilocks utility trailer that I can drag through the woods and carry a cord of wood in. I'm thinking a 5' X10' with 3' high side panels to haul wood, gravel, mulch in it with a 5K single axle and a little extra ground clearance.

don't forget to add a hydro tilt feature on your trailer.

That would be nice but a whole lot more expensive. That only seems to be typically installed on those really heavy, tandem axle and pricey trailers landscapers use.
