Lots of things can be destroyed if doing things improperly. Those who can spare the time to read the owners manual and do it the right way shouldn't have any issues.

From not doing anything other than going for a ride while not turning? Should be less destructive than driving the vehicle.

Might as well look good while waiting for the tow truck.

Hmm, I thought a '69 should be a 396. Be that as it may, I've given up on a pursuit Durango (way too many idle hours for a 5.7) and on finding a nice GT AWD in Granite. Stumbled upon a GT AWD Plus for a good price. Should have photos of it tomorrow, and if it looks good I'll go get it week...

Yuck indeed. Even if had two doors less.

Clinton had an El Camino?!? Okay, that does it. Now I really don't want one. I have a Durango GT Plus AWD lined up that seems very promising.

C'mon, man. There are people referring to their SUVs as "trucks". But no, I don't even call pickups of any kind "trucks", even though they technically are.

I've never had one, so I still like it. And the current 1/2-tons make me like the '60s El Caminos even more.

Tow bar mount?

Since my pursuit of an El Camino has ended, I might end up with a cheap Durango instead. It's the right color (Granite) and has the pursuit option.

I've stopped looking for a '68 or '69 El Camino. It dawned on me that some EV fanatic might think that the "El" stands for electric.

Yeah, I never thought about it that way and was surprised to read than a V6 Challenger is quicker than many of the old muscle cars. Had a '91 GM pickup with a 454 which produced a whopping 225 hp.

Damn. You have alligators up there now?!?

Thankfully, none of those around here. Then again, we don't have alligators either.

Good thinking. Start them off with only a little power at first, then once they master some 500 hp you can let them loose with a 'Cat and another couple of hundred. Of course, you could also just give them the black key.

I can relate. Didn't tow a thing with my Durango. Of course, I never drove it, either. That's why I didn't keep it.

Yeah, I became wiser and realized the reality of towing with a 6.4 in a Ram 2500. That's why I have a 3500 with a Cummins now.

Don't you have to be kinda old and settled down to get a 6.4 instead of a 6.2?

It was 10% off of MSRP when she bought her 3500 Cummins as I recall. Might have been some other incentive a $1K, too. Either way, a fair amount of vehicle for the money. I suspect that a 4-door longbed is longer than a mega cab.

That's how it used to be, but I think I could search nationwide last time I was looking for a 3500. Ironically, my girlfriend found a Tradesman locally that she liked. I had dismissed that one as it had all kinds of odd options, like running boards, cab marker lights (on a SRW!) and much other...
