Canadian HLVW

Just got this home. My neighbors love it.

My GVRW is 27000 lbs. The winch is rated at 30000lbs so it's a bit light for the job. I got a deal I just couldn't pass up. Snatch block if necessary I guess.

Congrats on the new truck! What are your plans for it?

The guy I got the truck from owned a quary and converted it to a dump truck. His guys didn't like it because it was too tippy which I don't find surprising. My plan is to cut the dump bed down and keep the function of it. Then it will be a flat deck and I'll put my camper on the back as an expidition vehicle. I'm going to make it such that the camper will be like a roll off. I'm doing that so that I can take it to events and still wheel it without the camper on it or I can put my Jeep on the back.

One thing is for certain, I got lucky, someone somewhere along the line loved this truck a lot and it's in mint condition. I have very little work to do.

Welcome aboard! You're in some very prime country for exploring and in good company too. The Windsor Ontario explorers just sent their photos from last weekend on the Canadian shield. Keep those pics of that fine truck coming.

I'm looking for some "comunity" but it's not going to well. I'm going to check those guys out. Thanx.
