I rather a good working truck than cash anyday. You are still green, I bet you after a few weeks you will never not own a truck.

Good to hear but just keep and eye on it, mine is clean and they just rust protected it last week for free.

 

I was anti truck until I moved in with my girlfriend who had a full size Chevy short bed 5.3L. I've hauled god knows how many sets of wheels/tires, bags of mulch, dirt, flowers for the yard, cinder blocks, 1000lbs of pea gravel for Matt (NaAllTheWaySlow), a chopped up EF shell for Matt again, an entire 10'x30' storage unit's contents, helped a few people move including myself, and it is fun to drive with loads of torque and power. Only problem is I'm cursed by the 4L80E shitty transmission problems. Hard shifts, lack of shifting in to overdrive sometimes, and occasional slipping off the start..... Oh well.

 

TRUTH. In 14 years of driving, I've been without a truck for 1.5 years. To quote my father, "Man cannot live without truck."

I mean, c'mon...Ford F-series is the MOST sold vehicle in the US. That's over any passenger car you can think of. Goes to show Americans love their trucks.
