Hi guys ...I will be getting a new vech in about 2 to 3 years (I hope) and I am starting to give some thought to which type of vech I would like....
I use my current van (Nissan Vanette Cargo) which is good, has 2 side doors, back doors and so far has proved to be a good work horse.
Now I am thinking about how I could best use a vech...perhaps a pickup...with dropsides...
Now I have seen quads with tanks on them ...now imagine havin a quad in the back of your van....drive it out of the back of your van...and away you go...what would be your dream vech for wfp?
Cheers
Dave.

mmmm...me thinks that boredom is setting in...time for everyone to get back to work ;D ;D
-
i am chronically bored out of my head. I guess i do have better things to do but i dont have the motivation
-
I think that varistream needs to be a bit higher - you'd put your back out otherwise.
-
yes good point , though youd probably put your back out trying to get into the trojan bubble car (if your old :-*)- the whole front hinges sideways to get in.

It's like one of those "what can you see hidden in the picture" kiddies books - I had to look for about ten minutes before I found the varistream ;D ;D
-
but no seriously pingu
you could get a decent wagon like one of these for wfping
youd get the good advertisement, put some signwriting on there, nice big tank in the back - i mean look at the engine size theyd have the horsegrunt to shift you about, and people would like it.

Whilst I am impressed by the above set-up wouldn't a decent van mount with 100m of microbore hose be a lot less hassle?
-
Its so he can ride round the back of the house

Did you get a discount off list price, usually you an get 10%, did you manage more than that
-
Yep, I managed more than that - in excess of 15%.
-
was that from the Indian Queens guys
-
No I got the best deal from 'up-country'. I did try Indian Queens, but they were not as flexible on a deal.

Only use the truck for distances over 10 miles. Bike pulls all the water need in a day! Much quicker than a van mount on residential work.
