ok so this isnt 100% subaru based, but subaru drivers come from all walks of life so it seems fair to put it here and see about a response.

Im in need of a truck/transporter for a few things and as most of you know i like to be difficult and different. The truck will have to carry at least 2 cars, 1 on the bed 1 on a trailer, and these could be quite varied so it has to be pretty versatile, were talking my play car, my brothers rally car, my brother drift car, my offroad thats almost in the works and probably many others. It will also have to take a side loading grain tank and water tank for around the farm

Engine wise it has to be able to do 110 fully loaded (maybe 100 but ill look at laws late) cause i hate seeing people driving trucks on the highway at 80 cause thats all their town delivery trucks can do. So im looking at a diesel, maybe biodesel or better yet used cooking oil, turbo or supercharged again unsure about that.

Body will be the cab off an old dodge that i found in reasonable nick, not sure about chassis though maybe have to build one to my needs and get it engineered and all that jaz.

Any comments??
