It would be a decent weekend camper, run relatively cheap, say just for camping, a fishing trip. Or, if you wanted better than a tent as far as accommodations, let the old lady drive it while you towed your rig. As for towing, I don't think it would handle the flat lands for long much less the hills and mountains around here. My brother n law had one, may still have, that was a flat bed, he used to haul parts here and there, engines, trannys and so on.
