My pleasure!

Yours is the only youtube channel I've caught from the start so I'm in the habit of keeping up. It's also something I thought of doing a few years ago with my redundancy money.

@chopps thanks for the forum plug, the pickup looks good I assume it'll soon have your logos on it, don't forget to post a picture.

It'll tow 3.5 ton if a braked trailer so when you go large it'll still do the job

Tuning in now...

I've always wanted a Ranger. Visiting my cousin in Minnesota and being driven around in his Ranger was just the coolest thing to a 12 year old me.

Shame I can't drive

I always pray for a truck when I go to MN too. Please let it be an F150 parked at the airport, please, please, please....

Thinking about logos, but it still needs to be dual purpose and discreet for the day job too.
(If it's possible to be discreet in a 3.2 Litre 5 cylinder monster truck that smells like spent grain)
Those magnetic ones you can stick on the doors are a bit rubbish (apologies to any plasterers out there)

Could you hang something off the side?

Or have something on the underside of the cover that could be propped up behind the cab when the bed is being used?

 

[chopps]

Could do yep! Might just go for the vinyls and swap cars with Sarah when I need to go stealth mode.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Or get a hard top that is fully stickered and tall enough for 9g/50l, which only gets fitted at weekends?

Might be a better option anyway to cover things if you're eg delivering via the M6 with salt/surface water on it?

Good plan for the future! Currently we don’t go further than Congleton one way and Nantwich the other.

You've delivered to festivals further afield, no?

I was just thinking of the pubs that might not appreciate a layer of salty road crud on their containers - I don't know how bad the spray is off one of those things but it only takes eg a truck going the other way to pass you just at a puddle to drench you.

As I say, it might not be an issue given the height of those things.

I thought it was going to be like a roller blind but it looks like a heavy duty bit of kit

I'm less worried about a horrific RTA now where a minor shunt was made a lot worse by half a ton of beer smooshing you through the windscreen!

This new setup looks much less of a PITA to load as well!

Cheers. Very happy so far.
Going to the brewery this morning to work out how many I can get in, in various orientations.

Looking good.

Just a thought, you could make a bracket that would allow the sack truck to stand up on its side behind the rear of the cab it wouldn't obscure your view out of the back window but would give you room for at least two more barrels.

Basically a lesson in not allowing bar staff to pour bottle conditioned beers. They're clueless.
