So I just bought a nice extended cab ford ranger. If I put a sled deck in her can I haul 4 snow bikes? I do have 4 seats with seat belts.

Have never seen sleds off a truck at tete jaune. In fact not sure I've seen a sled rig stopped there.

Either way I have run my 3/4 through scales an am well under with 2 sleds and gear.
With two people and extra gas with the gear? Wait, you're a Hobbit, that right there is 200lb weight savings. You should be good Chrissy.

Can we run this to 100 pages?

I had a half ton for years and a two place open trail it pulled the trailer awesome. But there's no way I would put a deck on it! Just not heavy enough. I think the weight isn't the issue it where the wait is, being up high like that isn't good on a half ton. I was planning on a deck this year so I bought a 1ton dually so I never have to even think about it. Just bolt it down and go!

A 1 thin dually? Is that really any heavier duty than a 1/2 ton?
