Sold my son one of my old work trucks for 5k. 2002 7.3 F250 regular cab long box 2 wheel drive. He was parked at work and got clipped by a car trailer. They totaled it and wrote him a check for 8k. That truck paid for itself many times over.
Rent a utv. Awesome and fun, they just give you a map and turn you loose. There are some pretty challenging trails, gets your heart racing. ( Talking Sedona)
