My dad's got a Ranger. That thing is fun. But, don't get a truck if you're not going to haul stuff. Otherwise you're a tool.

PS
Note I said when it comes to older cars. New cars have so much electronic crap I have no idea how to keep them running outside of basic maintenance. All the preventative maintenance in the world isn't going to help you when your harness shorts and your 4,982 onboard computers shut down.

eh, i was given a truck. i'm pretty much stuck with it. it got me a bit into minitrucking.

if you're looking for a truck, i'd look into a toyota or nissan. tacos and hbs aren't done enough, IMO. everyone buys an s-10 to work on because it's ALL freakin bolt on.

ok then..dont buy a four cylinder unless youre looking for a 30 mpg econobox to drive 50 miles back and forth to work everyday....


vanilla..yes..most people do go to S-10s for that reason...ive always been a chevy guy and think if theyre done right...they look great...especially when theyre slammed and have a 350 or similar motor in them...

As far as other brands go...tacos look great when laying frame...in fact..im a sucker for any minitruck thats scraping

His is a V6. I'd get a 4, because I like gas mileage, though.

S10's are good all around trucks, 350's have more parts available for less money than probably any other motor out there. I've never really been into low rider trucks, simply because I think it contradicts the purpose of a truck. A truck is for carrying stuff, and you can't really carry anything if your front bumper hits speed bumps when the thing is empty....no offense intended. Besides, low riders are kind of out of fad now....now the in thing for trucks seems to be off road accessories....

but getting back to the original topic: Dude, buy whatever is going to make you happy....if you're not in a rush, test drive anything you think you might be interested in. You're not going to know if it will be reliable until you've had it awhile anyway.

Trucks is for hauling.

I'm a nerd.
