Chuck (CA) said: (quoted from post at 01:46:48 07/13/11) I'm needing a newer truck. However, when I want to rent an auto trailer (tractor trailer), they say they won't rent you one unless you have a 3/4 ton vehicle.
We need a new truck, and I would very occasionaly want to move my New Holland T1510 w/ loader. This tractor w/ loader won't even go 3000 lbs.
I plan on buying a trailer, but I want to make sure I won't have any trouble with a 1/2 ton. This tractor would be the most I would ever pull.
Do you guys see any issues?
Thanks,
Chuck
Chuck if not for the rules a 1/2 pickup with the right engine and transmission would do you just fine. Also are you sure you want to buy a newer truck? Unless you're towing long distances or really want the "cool" new look, why not go with something smog exempt and save some money? Personally I'd get a 1974 Chevy 3/4 ton with disc brakes and go from there.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
