The one ton spectacular cargo hauler extreme!!!!!!

[brad]

So, not a bike build.........But vitally important to me, is a solid moto hauler. In order to get to those track days and far away enduro adventure rides, a good tow rig is hard to beat. I wanted something that could pull a heavy load, get decent mileage, and have the ability to accommodate a couple of folks overnight if necessary. She's equipped with auxiliary air/heat, and sports a true refrigerator. Sleeps 2-3 comfortably, and with turbo diesel power, can pull a heavy load without worry, and return 17-20 mpg.

Thanks to Aaron (Minus) and his brother, the dated exterior look has been transformed into something arguably timeless, and maintenance friendly.

What it looked like when purchased:

Again, thanks to Aaron and Toby for working tirelessly in the heat to get this rig ready for Hallett. These two gentlemen are a blast to be around, and make the chore a lot of fun.

Er.......not sure why the images aren't working??

Best fix i could come up with Brad. Apparently Google does not want to work like the regular image hosting sites.

Anyway the van went from this:

brad: I dunno, those teal stripes are kind of timeless. Tacky, but timeless. That wrap looks great, I'm coming up with all sorts of scenarios now where I might need one. (Seasonal vehicle wraps? Dress your car up to look like a giant ornament for 2 months near Christmas!)

Tim: I thought that was a shot of a young Speed Vicar at first glance! But then I realized the hair didn't quite match. ;D Speaking of said Speed Vicar, we need to come up with an activity that will accommodate his schedule. If I'm not going to make it to church I need to get my holy time any way I can manage it, and I figure coffee with a vicar counts.

I think with a few tweaks she'll be perfect!

[brad]

That owner is tweaked

I'm just excited to jump in it for the trip to Hallett. Well done, can't wait to see some KTM orange accents. We'll have to snap some pics with the big motorcycle flatbed trailer attached. 42' of motorcycle van and trailer headed down the highway!

You left off the 'ney' on the thread title

Here's what it'll be pulling to Hallett. Custom tool box on the nose and removable chocks for up to six bikes.

Now paint "FREE CANDY" on the side

I thought it was "free ice cream and hugs"?

Brad, you'll be wanting an endless 8-track loop of Sammy Johns' "Chevy Van" playing for those Hallet trips.
