Hahaha made you look it up
Yeah, you made me do it. Winner.
Just messing with ya manâŚdidnât realize you were from down under. Do you guys have dodge rams there?
Apparently you just wanted to know if it was professional anyway, so all good.
Sarcasm aside, it looks great and would be a perfect truck for sign writing and hauling stuff
Peace man
I donât want to argue. My point is that his $1500 is like $15,000 when youâre broke. Itâs a fine line to walk when food, bills and rent are at risk
Itâs a crapshoot no matter what kind of used vehicle youâre buying. But of all the trucks I could buy⌠a dodge would be very last on my list. If it doesnât have a diesel engine, the only good thing in a dodge in 40 years, thereâs nothing good on it minus stock airbag suspensions now. Lol
Whatâs stopping you from making due with what you have for a little while? Josh Latimer started his company with a Chevy cavalier with a ladder strapped to the roof and later sold his company for millions.
I have been sitting on the idea of pulling the seat out of my chevy cavalier, building a makeshift ramp and rolling my machine into it for every job.
The only reason (besides looking more professional) for getting a truck is the fact that the two cars i have now are on their last legs.
Having a 3rd vehicle for the family just incase one of my current two breaks down would be nice.
Maybe sell one of your current vehicles just after you purchase truck to give u some cash for repairs if needed. If they are on their last legs you will get more cash if you sell one while itâs still alive.
You should probably consider a part-time job to squirrel some cash away if youâre in a position where you could potentially have three vehicles go bad and donât have the money to fix any of them.
Especially if you have a family. Iâm not judging⌠3 years ago I was delivering pizzas at night and weekends just so I could pay my bills and continue marketing relentlessly.
I would have to agree here.
Or buy a small trailer so if you have a breakdown you can pull it with a different truck.
As much as this is a bad idea⌠I really wana see a video of it! Their there and theyâer I said it
Iâve had good luck with mine. Plenty of power pulls and stops my trailer fine and still gets 15mpg. I have the 5.7 hemi. I sold my utility truck and went back to this truck when we got my son another truck. I needed the back seat for kids and grandkids
My advice, would be to stack up more cash! I would not consider going into business if 1,500 feels like 15,000 like someone already stated. Hate to say it! But itâs almost a forsure fail! Stack up some money
Frankly, I would say go for it. Bootstrap your business. It wonât be easy but if youâre determined you can make it work.
Put a hitch on your car and get a small trailer many do it with no problems.
While I think a single person can and should take such risks, Itâs not pragmatic for a person to involve their family in the same risks.
If he wants to make due with what he has at the moment, washing part time, while working full-time thatâs another thing. But it sounds like $1500 is a BIG risk for the fella.
@Infinity can you link a pic of your old trailer?
Man⌠you should do a side by side of your old trailer and your new rigâŚ
Someone was here last year running their business out of the back of a Honda hybrid. Cant remember who thoughâŚ
It was a Prius. @JBreezy, IIRC. I believe he got a truck shortly thereafter.
Hereâs my old trailer. There are many better examples of how to set one up, though.
