I was just wondering what is y'all fishing vehicles. I personnally use an old Jeep Liberty 2003. It has a ceiling rod rack and a load bar to help load my kayak on the roof rack. I put A/T tires as I often fish back country... It is also has a hitch so I can pull my yak trailer or the 12ft aluminium boat.

 

What about yours ?

2001 Chevy Silverado LS, Extended Cab. More than enough 'oomph' to tow my canoe as it's equipped with the towing package.

 

 

 

2018 GMC Pick Up ~ 8100 miles 

A-Jay

2013 Genesis Coupe is my ride. I have to fold down the rear seats to get my rods in the car. It won’t go off road, tow a boat, or hold a kayak but it’s fast and it’s paid for. I’m traveling and don’t have a photo of my own car but the pic below is the same year and Parabolica Blue color.

 

 

2008 sebring hand me down from my wife. I put a hitch on it to pull my pond boat and I get about 28 mpg

2008 Toyota Tundra SR5. Truck has 134k miles on it, made my last payment on it last month ?

2008 Toyota 4Runner. Currently new-to-me but I've been able to get my old kayak racks on the roof and can throw my kayak up there. It came with a towing package which hopefully someday I'll be able to afford to use haha. But the seats fold flat so there's plenty of cargo room and I could sleep in the back if needed. I managed to rig some bungie chords and tie downs to hold all my rods inside against the roof. 

2016 chevy colorado Z71 with the towing package. It pulls my little 2017 ranger easily.

It has 36,000 miles Both are paid for, which is a nice feeling.

Seems like most of you are going fishing with their daily drivers !

I got 200k out of mine before I traded her in. Bought her new. Lots of little pesky problems, plus the bed was rusting up from the bottom. Current ride is a 2017 SuperDuty gasser. First year of the SuperDuty with an aluminum body. No more rust.

 

2003 Chevy Duramax, 600 hp diesel, 8 foot bed holds a lot of gear.. Wheels and other goodies have been updated. Old pic..

 

I have a 1998 Ford Explorer Sport (the 2 door model) and it pulls a 2002 LOWE 180 WT ok.  I've got 120,000 miles on it, pretty much all fishing miles.  I have a different car I drive to work in..

2004 Colorado that always contains at least 2 rods and a dozen Plano's.  It is also my daily driver.

2010 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 TRD off road. The little truck that could...

2015 Ram . 

1994 F150

2003 Nissan Frontier with a little over 100,000 miles pulls my 1996 17ft Lowe pretty well.

 

2013 GMC Sierra 4x4

I have a Rio 5 for my daily commuting to work since the old Jeep has a real bad gas mileage...

Just traded in my 2012 Ram last month for a 2019 Ram 1500 sport. It’s a beautiful truck that rides like a dream and I don’t even feel my 18’6” boat on the back. As a stonemason by trade, it’ll haul a fair good load of rock too!

Well, when you can only afford to have one vehicle, you get one that's multi-purpose.

  15 Ram 4x4 . Its why none of my rods are over 7'0" they wont fit diagonally in the bed .

Gas price south of the border also help making this happen I also wouldn't like to scratch/break anything more recent than my old Jeep Liberty. It has its fair share of trail to lake x scars !

My ceiling rack is made of a broom handle and bungees and it works beautifully as long as the rods are 7'3" or less

Recently acquired 2010 silverado with 74000 miles. Yes my daily driver as I'd rather have my second house in Maine than a second vehicle in mass.

 

'16 4Runner Trail Premium & a '14 1648 Grizzly.
