Gladiator as a work truck?

[QuintusMaximus]

I've hauled more than a few yards of mulch this summer

Nice! I need a bunch for my backyard right now.

I’m a carpenter, I use mine daily to drive my tools to job, everyday I carry all my usual tools in it like my pack out system with all my drills circ saws etc, I also have bucket buddy loaded with I try we hand tools, table saw, usually get our lumber delivered and we have other trucks but have been to the store to grab few things every once and awhile, funniest load was 1200sqft of insulation piled up over the roof

I think using a Gladiator as a work truck could be a pretty cool and unique choice. I mean, why not stand out from the crowd of F150s and vans, right? If you're considering it, you should definitely go for it! I'd love to see some pictures once you've got it all set up with toolboxes, maybe a Laffer rack, and whatever else you decide to add. By the way, speaking of trucks, I recently stumbled upon www.truckexporter.co.uk. They've got a bunch of used trucks, and who knows, you might find some Gladiator work truck setups that inspire your own customization.

I use mine for work, but I'm a fire investigator so most of my tools fit under the bed cover and my camera equipment goes in the back seat. I look at everything from commercial building fires to combines so the Gladiator gives me a lot of versatility where the Taco I used to drive was two wheel drive and it made me have to park it and catch a ride with the farmers quite a bit.

So if yours turns out to be a lemon it may spontaneously combust in a non-trackable way is what I'm reading...

I haul all sorts of things in mine - sod, wood and yesterday hauled the high school cheer team and their float in the homecoming parade.

 

[BearDog]

Yup

Not gonna happen! Even at 35,000 miles it is still my favorite truck I've owned. As an old hot rodder, if the engine gave up the ghost it would wind up with a 392 or hemi in it before it got me too hot

Exactly. This is my last truck. Mine WILL have a Hemi eventually.

I don’t work anymore, but your reasoning is why I bought my Gladiator versus a Chevy/Ford/?.

Mine will as well. The only reason I'll sell mine is if they offer the 5.7 or 6.4 as a factory option.
