Rice Lake truck jobs

Match the truck to what you actually do around Rice Lake

Boat and pontoon towing

Red Cedar, Rice Lake and the chain lakes

Pulling a pontoon to a public landing every summer weekend is a different job than a once-a-year camper trip. Bring your trailer weight and we will check the specific truck’s door-jamb and owner’s manual ratings, axle ratio and hitch setup before you buy.

Ice fishing

Hauling a shack onto the ice

A 4x4 with good ground clearance, a working 4WD system and a hitch for the shack or sled trailer. We check 4WD engagement on the test drive, not just in the shop.

Winter commute

US 53 in January

Remote start, heated seats, a good battery and tires with real tread matter more than chrome. Ask us to show the tire depth and battery test on any truck.

Work and farm

Bed length and payload

Regular cab with an 8-foot box, or a crew cab for the family? Payload is on the door-jamb sticker; we will walk you through it.

Before you buy

What to check on a used truck that lived in Wisconsin

  • Frame, brake lines and rocker panels for salt rust. Look underneath, not just at the paint.
  • Hitch receiver and wiring: heavy towing history shows here.
  • 4WD engagement, in both high and low range.
  • A free CARFAX on CarBravo vehicles; ask for the history on any truck. Open recalls can be checked by VIN at NHTSA.gov.

Yes. Swant Graber in Barron is about 12 miles, roughly 18 minutes, from Rice Lake, with used Chevrolet, Ford and Ram trucks at two stores on E Division Ave.

Which used truck is best for towing a boat around Rice Lake?
