Something a bit heavier like this. :y

Fit a flatbed with a fifth wheel and jobs a goodun! :y
I don't know about the braking system on these trailers though, I'm guessing they're air braked, so you'd have to fit a compressor and tanks as well I suppose.... :-\

I've got to say there's a few Ford Rangers sprouting up round my way. I'm in love!

Brother in law had one of those in the Uk to live in for two years until last year. He used a Nissan diesel truck (like the one posted) to tow it.
The home was very nice. He has a smaller motorhome now.

Yes I like the big Yank pick ups too! The Chevy Silverado or Avalanche especially!! :-*
The MPG isn't as bad as you'd think and if you could get them in RHD I'd have one! :y Maybe I'll have to move to the States..... :-\
