well if you are looking for an S10 that is a great truck. They have been out for so long (VERY easy to find parts).

And cheap to fix also.

you buy a vehicle based on what other people say???? HAHAHA. Im a mechanic and if you want an import go ahead and pay more for parts for no reason, and most are a pain to work on, import or domestic will be fine as long as its maintained, one isnt better then the other. I have a F150 for my bike and it fits fine.......

a clean F150 will prob be out of his price range. And if it is its going to be a HIGH miles and im sure the ball joints will need to be replaced.

well i thought about a trailer, but i dont want a trailer on my p5 i think it might have some problems hauling 2 bikes and passengers and such.
and a tuck would be good i thought for when i go with the family we can throw all our luggage type stuff in the back and my bike and ride out.
so will almost any truck haul 2 bikes with the gate down? and is that safe to do?

^^ i mean get a little truck and then a trailer.

its so much nicer to have a trailer then having to worry about pushing ur bike up some little ramp.
