Screw it... Momma needed a little retail therapy and a way to escape this madness.

Thanks everyone! It's been a longtime dream of mine. When I find my phone cord I will post some interior pics. 

She's been garage kept and no one has even used the bathroom or stove! It was an in-laws suite, only slept in a few times.

 

Nothin' would be nicer than taking a road trip round this amazing country to visit the most beautiful peeps in the world!

Oh boy!

get your bearings checked, in fact with it sitting for so long I'd be inclined to replace them and the tires if going cross country

seen too many trailers stuck on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere

Aww, what a fabulous group of people in this thread!! I miss spending time with ya'll in the sandbox and of course, are sending love and hoping everyone is safe and healthy.

 

Earl, she is 2900lbs dry weight and I will be pulling her with a Toyota Tundra as of now. The Yota gas mileage sucks so I'm thinking about finding a smaller SUV, not quite sure yet. If anyone has a suggestion I would love your opinion!

 

I am pretty excited! If I play my cards right, instead of working in Colorado in the winter, I may be using her as a mobile office! Please send me good vibes. This virus thing has made me take stock in humanity and I'm just struggling to find my new path in life. She is my new motivation! 

Thanks for the support friends!!

How old is your Tundra, MG? Mileage? Shape? 

I got a Ford F 150 P/U I'm gonna sell. Has a trailer hitch and I think a tow package. 2011 4WD automatic with 47,000 miles on it.

Nice truck but I just don't care for the size. I may downsize to a smaller truck but I need a bed at little over 6 feet long and they're hard to find. May sell it and go for a van. 

Thinking about retirement in April/May and time for a trip or two or three.......

fine, fine thread here, begun by a phine, FINE woman!!!

my sister had a 1960something little orange shasta that served many times as a peaceful reprise from my family while it lived in the yard

Alex has a Tundra 8 cylinder for his pumpkins, so it should be able to handle your honey (;

you know you have a place up here when you make it...our property is adjacent to land and our sideyard may even have space

sooooooooooooo excited for you !

Merri, you have always been an inspiration for independence, kindness, and badassery

it is good to see you in 2D and have some laughs and fuck2020 venting this day

I like the Kitchen setup.  Great 3-Burner stove and fridge !! Single-axle design means less tires to maintain and less tolls over bridges and Turnpikes.

All I know is if you park it in freezing temps,  you have to put anti-freeze in the lines / tanks or make sure they are empty.

Well said Jill. I agree.

 

How much are you asking for your truck, Slick?

Not sure yet. Maybe in the 17-18-19 range. Have to look and see what they go for. I've seen 'em for 15-16 K with big miles on 'em, but haven't done too much research. 

It has a fiberglass shell and a carpet kit. I bought it 2 years ago but only put about 1200-1300 miles on it. Didn't get out camping as much as I thought I would. 

It's gonna need tires as the ones on there are original - 9 years old. That'll be about a grand and I'll let the next owner decide what they want on there.   

You know someone looking for one?
