I had my first one from Mike, and a bunch of tools and stuff and still had room for a wekends camping. Without a brushguard you can just lay part of rear seat down and you have plenty of room.
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.

A bumper dumper?
This is an aggressive post. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate a post of this quality and depth.

Woo Hoo! Somebody cancelled their reservation, so we are officially scheduled and good to go for our VA vacation from the 18-22nd!! Might actually be rested and worth half a shit for the first day, this time, being that our condo is 2 hours from there!

I had a day of work on "Nikita" 2 days ago, got another day, today, and possibly tomorrow as well. If that is the case I just may have the funds to commit to this trip. FINALLY! :friday:

Already 6 trucks confirmed. As I have said before... I don't really want to bring more than 8 if at all possible.

Good news is it looks like my business trip will not get in the way of this trip. Cool!
