Hey guys, haven't posted up in a while (haven't posted up much to begin with really) but I have a quick question.
I'm considering picking up an ex-ambulance for a tow vehicle and wanted any input/experiences you guys are willing to offer. My theory is that I can strip out what I don't need from the back and have a decent little tool shed on wheels. It would most likely be an E350 Type III ambulance, which means about 10k lbs GVWR and almost double that for GCWR. Now I'll obviously want to get the thing weighed first to make sure I have enough spare payload space for tools/tongue weight of the trailer. Plus if I'm not towing a race car/trailer I can always load a go-kart right into the back of the thing.
From what I can see, a used ambulance is the easiest way to get a cheap diesel truck that isn't rotting from the elements.
Not sure whether I'll be towing open or closed trailer, leaning towards enclosed as it will solve my $160/month vehicle storage issues.
So what do you guys think?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
