Try parking your boat trailer when there are JACK-AZZEZ that can't park in the designated parking area with your Dually. Then try to back out without hitting another trailer when they are jammed next to your trailer.

My 01 has an empty bed that I can haul what I want when I want without removing my big toolbox and hitch.

Sorry it does NOT hurt a darn thing for my DRW to set for 6 months during the Summer, nor my 01 to set for 6 months during the Winter when I head South.

No extra maintenance as maintenance is all about miles.

Sure the "Storage" Insurance is an expense but having a truck I don't have to worry about damaging it or having someone damaging it is worth a lot to me.

^^Interesting...never used storage insurance for a motor vehicle. Question...if you needed to use the 15 DRW today, would you have liability coverage on it, since you do on the 01?

All I do is call my Agent and tell him to put full coverage back on. I then call to have it removed once I am done with it. I get billed pro rated for days used.

Storage is fire and theft etc.


Thanks for the explanation! It helps to have a good agent, that appreciates your business. My agent has helped me at times, even when he had no obligation to do so.

I only have a diesel truck for several reasons listed above, diesel pulls better when towing and gets way better milage. even when not towing I get way better milage than the comparable gas model. the price of diesel up here is simular to gas, some times lower sometimes higher but it is a wash as far as I am concerned with the better fuel milage.
