At our ranch outside Falfurrias , we hunt out of two modified VW buses (a "Magic Bus"according to The Who). In our soft 'sugar sand', we run a bit less air in the regular street tires, fill 'em with goop and can go virtually anywhere. Best of all, the ride is very 'smooth', like floating on air! Meanwhile, those bouncing along behind a running dog in an expensive, customized one-ton dually pickup with stainless dog crates and mile-high vantage points will be dragging out the 'BenGay" by the end of the day. While surfing the net this morning, I found this site built by John Howe of Kingsville with a picture tutorial on how to customize a VW bus for hunting! http://www.quail-hunter.com/Quailmobile_Project1.htm
Now, you just have to find a good mechanic to keep the darn thing running!
UPDATE! We DID find a good mechanic...probably the best, thanks to John Howe's recommendation...
