Put the flashing lights on and park it wherever you like; really handy for hospital car parks.

Would be great on Australian beaches, problem is, it probably only does 5 miles to the gallon.

There are red ones on that site. I am thinking of buying one just to swank around in. The motor alone in that thing is worth four grand.

Yep it would be about five. I have a flat bed with a Ford 460 ci that gets about five pulling a trailer. I have a Chevy Tipper that gets ten with an 8.1 litre Chevy engine though. Diesel is best but we can't get them past CARB's loony new regulations. What is good in the other 49 States won't do here. (California Air Resources Board)

John, it would certainly be handy for pumping the piss rings out at Airborne forces Day !

Re: Anybody want this for their grandkids ???

John... Anything older than 2011 is coming off the road on Jan 1st 2020 Or be limited to 416 miles a month. .... It ain't just trucks though....its everything. I know at least 30 concrete pumpers that have left California for Texas ...Tennessee....Georgia. Working blokes can't afford to scrap a 100 000 dollar well maintained diesel concrete pump that purrs like a kitten, because some Vietnamese Walter, with false credentials he bought on the web, in the Air Resources Board, fudged a load of psuedo science. So they sell their house and split. Forced out.....Trucking Companies are leaving in droves. Its driving delivery prices and especially food and restaurant prices through the roof.

Four women and one Vietcong, are wreaking havoc. I can get a beautiful well maintained 90's or low 2000's Diesel Tipper a hundred yards the other side of the Colorado River in Arizona for ten grand but I live in California so I have to come up with a 100 000 bucks. So we went with and 2003 8.1 Litre Chevy C7500 Dump Truck I got for 25000, with 14000 miles on it, from the City of Los Angeles Highway Dept. Which is ok but it costs 50% more in gas mileage and is only half as strong foot pounds wise as a Cummins Diesel. What you gonna do ? This is La La Land mate. Land of the Fruit and Nuts. Gotta keep going despite these fookin' idiots.

Re: Anybody want this for their grandkids ???

I can't see that diesel is any different to petrol, when it comes to pollution Tony.
I honestly believe in the conspiracy theory of the World order. A bit like our beef being banned for 10 years because of foot and mouth.
We have for some years now been importing Japanese cars. Because they can not have any motors over there that are older than 3 years.
So dump them on to us. I did in fact buy a 3 year old Toyota 4x4 about 10 years ago.
Brilliant car at the time.
I wonder if that Jap policy will ever catch on elsewhere?
