yeah, it is pretty expensive. it takes me a 1/4 of a tanks just to get to school and back. I usually have to fill up thursday or fridays. And then if i go riding around on the weekend i usually have to fill up a few times. But other than thats this truck has around 500hp under the hood. Me and my dad built it.

Sounds like a truck you can have a good time in or get into a lot of trouble with.lol.I used to go riding a around with a few of my friends at your age.We had an old Thunderbird we cruised in.It took four of us to scrape up enough money to ride around in it just on the weekends.Sounds like fun.Enjoy it while your young.
