With a top speed of 55 mph going downhill with a tailwind it makes for a pretty crummy drive all by itself. Wouldn't want to imagine what it is like while towing.
my friends 66 bronco has a really bumpy ride... must have sucked for hom when he drove home doing 35 mph on the freeway.. he lost his rearend while we were playing at hollister svra.... 4x4 on dry pavemnt in a 35 year old truck isnt good.... it got him home though
Yeah, I know there heavy, slow and bumpy, but for $7k, it would be a hell of a work truck. Could you imagine taking that to the hardware store to pick up some plywood or to pull the baot to the lake. A inline six seems a little small for 2.5 ton vehicle though. It has to be geared low to pull that weight, maybe you could regear to get it up to atleast 65.
I'm used to the bumpy, I had a 78 Scout II with leafs on all corners. Driving down the freeway could give you whiplash, but it would pull anything.
Almost all heavy duty (Class 6,7,8) truck engines are inline six cylinders. Of course the displacement is from 10 - 14 Liters and they weigh about 1/2 what an Explorer weighs
