Talk about nice, that Tuscany conversion was just spectacular. It was a 4wd, Crewcab F-550 white in color, and had the Star Hauler bed. It had huge leather seats in itnd just really loaded up. I WANT ONE BADDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!

I didn't ask the lady that was driving it. But I am sure it was pricey. She said she tows a large living quarters type Horse trailer with it, that weighs in around 22k.

Tuscany has been primarily a van conversion outfit, but they are more and more getting into haulers, too. You can special order your truck with whatever Ford options you want to pay for, from an F-250 regular cab XL 4x2 gasser to an F-550 CrewCab Lariat 4x4 PSD. Then you can order from the "upfitter" the hauler bed and anything else Tuscany offers - including air suspension and "truck driver" air-ride seats. So buying price for "a Tuscany hauler conversion" is probably almost $30,000 to well over $60,000. Depending. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]

For a long time Tuscany has been building the "Longhorn Haulers" you may have seen. I for one discovered they were the upfitter when I was trying to find them online, there is no website that I could find for them, but then called Tuscany and they told me they were thones that built it. A guy that works for me has a 2004 Longhorn Hauler and he loves it, although I don't go crazy for the wood looking plastic components inside, but it's sharp outside!

The one I seen was a Tuscany with the star hauler bed. I did not see any other name besides Tuscany on it.
