Ways to make extra money with an M1078

[Kbrails]

I live in a beach town with a drive on beach, very soft sand. Other than doing recoveries with my M1078, what are some other ways to make money with my truck?

you could do parties and events for some cash, kids love military trucks. I did a birthday party, they were all dressed in camo and took pics with the truck

Keep in mind when you start to charge for your services it becomes a "commercial truck" . Once you figure the the costs for commercial plates , insurance , DOT regulations , CDL ect. you will find it costs more than you can make.

You could always go back into active combat situations.

Or, I guess you could contact the actors guild and ask if they need military trucks as props.

What ideas are you looking for. I grew up in a beach town and I have no idea where you could possibly go with this idea unless you want to sell ice cream out the back. Trying to launch a tow and rescue business is not a simple endeavor and might not be worth it.

Best,

With all the TV and movie studios in Wilmington make get in with them renting it as a prop.

My HMV group was approached from time to time around prom season by parents looking for a cool way for their kids to arrive at the party. As tempting as it was to make an easy couple-of-hundred, liability issues are a real concern.
