Once again, I am trying to escape my reality (When time permits) with think of Idea’s for my Future Autox/Drift/Ultimate frisbee team. Already Though Of a Livery, The Cars (Mke3 Supra for main duties, The lovely Aw11 for S.A.G), But now, We need something to haul the things!

First thought was a NPR or similar Cabover, They are fairly affordable for a regular flatbed but expensive for a wrecker. I think a wrecker would be perfect, Especially for a side job to make a couple bucks recover a few vehicles. Though the High cost on getting into one would be a challenge, So I perused Ebay and found something closer to my price range.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Has all the requirements, A Ford, 5 Speed, Diesel, Stacks, Blue, Stacks and did I mention it had stacks and for the price, it would be fairly reasonable.

However, Not enough room to sleep in or carry tools and parts. I could get a Motel room next to a lovely arrangement of waffle houses and strip clubs, But I prefer to sleep away from questionable fluids and not have to have my CCW on me when I am trying to sleep.

So, A look on my local craigslist found me this:

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Once again, All the requirements, Manual, 7.3L diesel and this one has room and ability to me converted to a camper, However, i would still need to have a trailer to haul the car.
My question to all oppo’s, What would you do if you wanted to travel to various even’ts with once vehicle, or for that matter what have you done to do so?

You might be able to fit an AW11 into that step van. I’ve been thinking about the same thing recently, but leaning towards NPR. The NPR box trucks I saw had an interior width that will take an A-Dub. Not so sure on the Supra, but either option should tow. I’d just rent a trailer as needed since they’re cheap from Uhaul.

I just typed “Ambulance” into my local out of curiosity, and found this gem of a post. Many diesel. Such cheap. Much potential -

Love the idea, however, I can’t handle the land rover budget, the closest I’d get to a land rover would be this.

I was thinking the same thing, If i had something that would haul, The trailer can come later.

Also, i think it would be great to have a Aw in a Box.

Recently I saw a newer Range Rover towing an older Range Rover stopped on the side of the road with the hood up. I so wish I had a picture of it.

These all look like private transport ambulances, so I wouldn’t be too worried about it. They’ve probably been used almost exclusively to transport grandma from the hospital to the nursing home.

True, Then I would have to deal residure from a GI bleed and frebreeze.

Still, I am surprised I seen one turn up on craigslist, Then again, I haven’t really searched my area, Gonna have to expand my options now.
