Work is what trucks are for!

Agreed - Mine does (relatively) heavy hauling a few times a year (home projects / cleanup), but spends most of it's life hauling around lighter weight but bulky equipment/supplies to support the FIRST robotics team I teach. My bed is full ~7 months a year.LOL, when I dismantled my deck last fall, the heaviest of the three loads of scrap lumber I hauled out with my RCSB (pictured elsewhere in the thread) tared out at 1,080 pounds.
Some of us actually use our trucks....and I don't understand why you'd own one unless you did.

My 99 F250 has pulled stumps, towed multiple vehicles out of high water and mud, hauled cord wood, dirt, furniture and untold other stuff and towed sport bikes from New Mexico to Maine. It’s also killed 6 adult deer (5 white tails and an axis doe, one skunk, and some jackrabbits.LOL, when I dismantled my deck last fall, the heaviest of the three loads of scrap lumber I hauled out with my RCSB (pictured elsewhere in the thread) tared out at 1,080 pounds.

Yep! Through 2016 only; Porsche stopped importing them after the VW Dieselgate issues. Same driveline as the Touareg TDI/ Q7 TDI, which means parts are cheap. And because of the emissions scandal, they all have court-mandated 10-year, 120K-mile warranty on all emissions-related equipment including the turbos. Mine had the entire DEF injection system (pump, heater, harnesses, tank, lines, etc.) replaced under warranty about 5k miles ago, so it should be good to run for a long while.I didn't know you could get a diesel Cayenne? That's awesome. We used to have a F-Pace diesel that got 38mpg. It was awesome!
That’s awesome. What a find. I’m going to have to look into those!Yep! Through 2016 only; Porsche stopped importing them after the VW Dieselgate issues.

Where did you find that?If my receipt to my insurance company didn't have to say "Titans hitch receiver cover", this would be on the back on my truck right now!
