Can haul a whole class 's gear down in the locked "trunk."
 
Red 2002 F-250 4 door crew cab, lariat trim, leather, wood and all the bells and whistles. 4X4 with a color matched locking cover on the bed with a V-10 to pull it along.

Big and comfy on the inside, gets you anywhere and can carry enough stuff for all the techies that can fit in it.

One drawback is with the gas milage on the V-10 i'm the reason we needed to invade iraq.... sorry....
 
I don't think that you should lump small and full size Pickups together. They're just not the same.

*cruisin to the turbo whine* with 325 HP and 560 lbs of "trailer haulin torque"...

2003 Ford F350 Crew Cab 1 ton dually 6.0 L Powerstroke Diesel 4x4.

Ride 'em cowboy! This baby can take the whole shop divin'...and I mean "the whole shop." Soon to be lifted, guaged, straight-tubed and chipped!

Emergency backup scuba mobile is a 95 Chevy 454 4x4 dually...still pullin' great...for a gas burner that is! For sale, BTW.

Since my last post I actually DID go out and acquire a new "Dive-mobile". It's a teal-green 1997 Ford Ranger. Standard (not extended) cab, but then it's usually only me driving it, anyway.

It's already got dive stickers on the bumper, flies a 6"x4" diver don flag, and has decals on teh windshield that spell out "Sailmobile" and along the back window that spell out "I'd Rather Be Sailing".

OK, so you can tell pretty easily how I spend my summers. My SigOthr has started to ask for ID when I walk in the door of my house ;)
 
My poor abused Mustang hauls my gear. I spend too much on trips and gear to buy anything else.

The record: On our trip to Tobermory, it carried One dive buddy, 12 tanks, 3 sets of gear (my buddy's, my recreational gear, and my rig with my doubles), and applicable clothes/ accessories to stay for a weekend.
 
Here it is 2002 Ford Boss 5.4 #358 out of 499
 
Used to have a Landrover 110 defender longwheelbase, noisy, expensive, cold, I loved it, although it wasn't the most girly car around. Changed it for a Toyota Hilux, which was more practical, did the job, but I just didn't love it the same - unfortunately the insurance company rang this morning to say they are writing it off, so I'm on the hunt for a 'work car' and a series 3 as replacement I think
 
BradJ:
2001 Corvette Z06... race you to the dive site.


Sweet. Here I thought I was the only one who used their corvette for hauling dive gear to the site. Do you get the strange looks when you pull two or more tanks out of the backend, too?
