Well as you guys know I bought a bike (few threads down). I am looking to sell/trade my jeep for a pickup so I can haul the bike when needed...
I had a few options running through my head and need some input...
Buying a 2wd truck (s10, ranger, dakota, mazda... something simple) and baggin it... Pretty simple plan but not too sure about that route as the truck will mostly be the snow vehicle more than anything else.
Buying a 4wd truck (s10, ranger, dakota...) and baggin that... But not too sure how 4wd and bags work out, any input on that would be sweet.
Buying a 4wd and keeping it relatively stock (maybe a little lift and tires but nothing outragous)...
Need some input from you all... What would yal reccomend
ive had my colorado for 2 years now, its nice, good on gas, not too huge. check out coloradofans.com for opinions. i'm sure youve seen the pics of coderedz24's colorado, one of my favorites.
women are like cars you have to test drive the new one before you trade in the old one
4WD Toyota ftw. And no bagging a 4WD.... that's just dumb.
Edit: Why not just get a hitch and trailor for your Wrangler since you've already put work and money into it?

That's what I was going to say. Unless you just don't like the jeep anymore, but if you enjoy the vehicle, why get rid of it for something else. How often do you really plan on towing the bike anyways?
baggin' a 4wd truck is alot of work. just get a trailor

Cant do a trailer because I have no place for a trailer at school or at my condo on the beach (where I am living this summer). Love the jeep but somethings you have to give up for others...
i'll second the toyota 4x4. i purchased an 02 tacoma prerunner extended cab in august. absolutely love it. looks good, runs hard, runs great, held its own in the minor offroading i've done...they look bitchin raised up a few inches with some nice rims/tires.
GO PATS!!!
What about the svt lightning? It looks good enough stock, imagine that thing on bags, mmmmm *drool*

first off, if this is going to be a snow vehicle like you said, forget 2wd. Yeah you can make it through w/o 4x4, lots of people do it, but 4x4 just makes it easier.
Like its been said, forget bagging the 4wd. It can be done but def not worth the time or money IMO. If you want to lower it you should be able to get it pretty low without the 4x4 binding up on you.
THIS is a 4x4 silverado lowered 5.5/7.5. As you can see, you can get 4x4s pretty low
thanks for the input... Right now I am looking for a dakota or zr2
ElCamino!
Whatever you get just make sure the beds big enough too fit the bike.
my buddy has a 98 ZR2 and we picked my bike up in that and i dunno how worried you are about closing the tailgate while having the bike in the back, but i have an 85 Ninja 600R and the bike was about an inch and a half too long hanging on the tailgate. Drove almost 500 miles on the interstate like that though with it strapped down. Either way, ZR2 nice trucks. I see your in MD. Theres a 2003 or 2004 Located at Fitzgerald for 14000 with only 20k on her. Good luck man.
Why do they call it a love seat when its so hard to make love on?
^Yeah I picked my bike up in my dad's frontier. Drove back 4 hours with the tail gate down because it was about an inch too long in there. If I am pressed for closing the gate I could angle the bike, but makes no difference to me...

What beach? I see you're from MD. I'll be living in OC all summer.
OC too man, I;l be out on 38th street all summer, right across from convention center which is sweet for the car shows. Sit on my balcony and see the show outside

Renta Car Guy: Its a Chrysler sir. Is there a problem?
Jerry: Well I drive a Chrysler back home. Don't you have something a bit more authentic a bit more mexican?
Renta Car Guy: how about an El-Camino......
Jerry: Yeah yeah yeah.
(quote may not be exactly right from the mexican)
Sweet, I'm looking for places as I type. I'm working Beach Patrol (for those that don't know, it's lifeguarding, not rent-a-cop). We gotta meet up, drink some beers, hit up some girls! You know how it goes. My friends live across the street from Pickles (between 7th and 8th)
