    Exactly like this, sans the extra frame (weighs in at ~150 lbs), and the wing on the car I've currently got doesn't go flat, so it acts like a giant sail and kills my already shitty mileage.

    With all the gear I carry now it's squatting my old mans 96 350 DRW pretty good.

    you can get single wheel 1 tons

    if you're going to be driving it every day, I promise you don't want a DRW truck. even if you DO live in the sticks. I've had two of them and I fucking hated them.

    but really, all you need is a 3/4 ton to haul a 2000lb car and associated stuffs

    what are you looking for?

    and just how heavy is your race car that you need at least a 1 ton?! LOL Your average 1 ton can legally haul 16-18klbs

    your average modern 1 ton will easily tow more than that

    Not unless it's CRAZY cheap. I'm talking Reggie Strout cheap, too.

    What I don't get, is that Ford has been producing a 4dr Ford Ranger 4wd diesel for 10 years or more already. We in the US just don't get them. I am sure it is an emissions thing but they could engineer around that if they really wanted. My office I just left had just got a brand new 2014 Ford Ranger diesel.

    Diesel has been high long before any of these companies started making more Diesel models.
