hahah that little thing. we had one of those when i was stationed in korea. called a BONGO thing was fun to drive around base but scary as hell once you got out on the road. koreans are freaking nuts. and i think if i owned one of those i'd feel kinda homo-ish,

stretching a van would be way to much work unless i just put an extender on the back and left the back doors open. i'm thinking one of the big 8 or 10 pack vans would be big enough.

yeah should be, just have to measure n see how much room you'll need.

the extending thing is one of them projects that sounds cool, but will take 3 years to finish.....

i think the VAN toy hauler in general is one of those projects that would take 3yrs to finish. probably just end up riping out the seats then throwing all my stuff in it. hell it took me a year just to get my one 4wheeler running again

yeah, but you had a good excuse..... I would have never thought of it.

If you do get a van, pull the seats and make some sliding ramps and ur good to go.

well thats what i was thinknig you could build like a rail system that the 4wheelers sits on top of that allows you to pull the ramps in and out. and like i said with the air mattress at least then you're not sleeping on the ground

Most of those aren't street legal. Depending on your state, if the title has ORV on it, they won't change it.

if it has signals, head & brake lights it's legal.

Ah, we can take the tent, but the air mattress goes as well... and even driven 2 hours to a wal-mart to get a pump, since the other one was at home still.

I could put all that on my quad, but it would still be illegal. It's all in how it's titled. A lot of places selling these even state they are not street legal.

yeah it all comes down to your state laws just like some states like my home state you can get plates for your quad. and just like most states mopeds are legal. and usually when they are under 50cc's you don't need plates insurance or crap just the proper safety gear. i still think the thing looks gay but it might look cool with a bad 4wheeler on the back

My toyhauler, a 2003 Ford E-150 windowless cargo van. It's big enough to load a Honda Rancher 420 but anything larger would be a tight squeeze. You can't ride it up a ramp into the van (not enough headroom for the rider) but you can 'walk' it up with the engine running and your hand on the throttle with a little practice.
