I need to sell this truck. The city of Lenexa claims it to be prohibited to park in residential areas. First, they claim it to be a flat bed. Now they claim the designated weight specification is greater than 1 ton and that makes it prohibited. The truck has a empty weight of 6500#s, GVWR of 11,500#s. My Forenza has a empty weight of ~3100#s, and a GVWR of 3737#s. Both should be prohibited. ...
Quote: Park any motor vehicle with a designated weight specification in excess of one (1) ton or any of the following types of vehicles: vehicles longer than eighteen feet (18') or taller than seven feet (7'), or eight feet (8') in width, flatbed trucks, dump trucks, utility wreckers, tandem axled trucks or cab and chassis trucks or hauling trailers or any other motor vehicle...
You would think so. I've got the custom bed listed also on CL. I priced it at 1/3 cost of new (~$8-9000). Didn't see anything like it listed on the areas CLs to help price it. Couple weeks ago saw one like it listed, without the top bed boxes, asking $5300 but it also had dual rear wheels. It is no longer listed. Sold? I don't know.
So now, I've got it listed at $2500.
Over the ...
Someone at the city has it out for you. They're saying you can't park a stock F350 on there (which is what you'd have if you replaced the flat bed with a pickup bed)?
According to these specs , my wife's Suburban DD must be illegal too. It's 222.4" long (18.5 feet). 6327# curb weight, 8600# GVWR, and 2273# payload weight (a bit over 1 ton).
I think you'd be okay if you could ...

Interior pics. See the little wear in the driver's seat. I put steps on the truck so this will limit the rubbing getting in/out of the truck. The TSB controller operates but shows a fault. It worked just fine pulling a 20+' trailer through CO and Moab. Brakes on the trailer still operated fine. I think it is in the wiring at the taillights as the window sticker states a 7-pin connector and there...
to bad you couldn't either park it in your own garage or rent a storage garage to park it in.
another option would be to move out of comradville lenexa
Mike you are welcome to park it in front of my house.
I never park there and there won't be an issue with it being here unless you park in my driveway and block a straight line for the sidewalk.
So basically, you're the only person in your entire neighborhood with a 1 ton truck? Seems like a bunch of 5 foot nothing soccer moms would be driving Suburbans and Excursions over there. But then what do I know, other than the only thing I would have up for sale is my house.
Sold the bed off the back of the truck. Now it is a true c&c. Still haven't heard from the city about the pickup bed on the back. I got a call yesterday from the code supervisor asking about the color of the bed. He recalled a 2-tone. He said he spoke to the prosecutor about it and that the prosecutor spoke to me about the color before. Yes, I said, and that the code states nothing about paint colors just that the factory design...
so get some dupli-color or whatever and paint the bed to match the cab, get it legal (by their standards), and then you can do whatever you please after that I would think (once it is accepted) _________________ USS Carl Vinson CVN-70 - 243 days underway and over 50,000 miles sailing over the Briney Deep - 1983 World cruise Proud to be a Charter member American Legion Riders post 21 Independence, Mo.

Instead of messing with all the suspension and driveline have you considered stretching the bed? Just pick a spot inbetween the fuel door and the rear wheel opening and insert 4". And if you don't want to mess with hand fabricating the filler piece find a POS used bed and cut the 4" from it. All the proper shapes and stregth would be there just weld it in and a little body work and repaint it. _________________ Darrin S...
