If you can afford the gas and have a fork lift to load it, it might be the all around work truck. It can even pull the skidsteers and other machines out if they get stuck.
Kind of pricey though.
Sorry if this website acts up although its not my site.

Ah, yes, just yer basic Mercedes Benz pickup/dozer/farm tractor - truck lust!!
Now that looks like a pick-up that I could throw the chainsaw into and head for the woods. Those other two I would feel as though I would have to take a shower at the job sit and change into a suit and tie just to be able to drive it home at the end of the day.
I think I will keep my E350 extra long 15 passanger van. Slide that 16ft extention ladder into it and close the doors on it. Holds more stuff too. Would have had to made twice the number of trips to the dump with a pick-up when cleaning out that house in Richmond, VA. Sheet rock and plywood lays flat on the floor too.
DaneI will always be a beginner as I am always learning.
Saw a very funny ad a while back....the caption said something like "how not to impress your first date". Guy had a PU about the size of that ultra- F-650, he had reached up and opened the door for his date, who, of course, was wearing a tight short skirt. The looks on the faces said "I want to be polite, but how the he** we gonna do this?"

Can you imagine what you'd do when the cell rings and the wife says "wanna grab a gallon of milk on the way home?"
Where do you park it? Reminds me of that song, "give me 40 acres and I'll turn this rig around"
"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man." - Mark Twain
Where do you park it?
From the looks of it, any damn place you want

Welcome to the Taunton University of Knowledge FHB Campus at Breaktime. where ... Excellence is its own reward!
I think this new form of male expression results from the proliferation of urban assault vehicles being driven by wannabees. Sorry, I usually come from the realm in which a pickup is for utility and not mentulity. :D
The unfortunate consequence of which is that Pick-ups are now selling at an artificially inflated price.
If working men/women were the only ones buying PU's they would still be 10,000$!!!

You beat me to it, I like working out of a van, like driving a truck.The only guys around here that drive these big things are the guys who Want to look like they work hard. When Cadillac started marketing an SUV I knew we couldn't go back to affordable trucks for those of us who really need them.
These trucks are bigger than my motor home. And mine has a full bath and kitchen.
And the problem with that is.....? LOL
as big as that truck is the motorcycle pictured still wouldn't fit into the bed with the gate up... and what did they use to get it in there, a boom truck? I'll stick with my Sierra HD2500, at least i can load it from the curb.

Yeah, that XUV with either 150 or 200 gallon tanks on both sides will not be cheap to fill up at $2.129/gal for diesel . . .
But, it might be a stretch between fillups with 300-400 gallons available.
