    Was just thinking that. Never mind the cost of getting it back to the mainland.

    I wouldn't have thought that they would tow a fifth wheel trailer very well. Isn't the mounting point meant to be directly over the axle? Not possible by looking at the pics.

    Yes but not my design - if you did it today you would use a 130 (or 127) crew cab.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    There's mention and a pic on

    the weight doesnt have to be directly over the rear axle but you can put it up over the rear axle on a 110 depending on the hitch up setup of the trailer you use.

    Agreed... welcome aboard Al... lets see some pics... only discovered this model after i'd had my 110 wagon cut down to a dualcab and thought i was so clever for keeping a flat wagone style back rather than the curved roof on the others
