Which truck, the ranger, the F150, or the f350? I'd like to sell the 150 so I can have the cash to buy my uncles 79 F150. The f350 still has to play tow/haul duties for a while even though the 6blow sucks. The ranger, is now done. I found my issues and fixed them tonight. All is right in the world!!
I haven't really pushed selling the 150, but it's been up for sale quietly for a month. Now -km going to clean the snot out of it and put it on Craigslist.
Hey guys, how's things? Just sticking my head in to say hi. I'm out here for training with the USCG and figured I'd say hi. I'm out here for A school so I'll be here a few months - but wasn't able to bring my Superduty. (Still a little sad about it... starting to miss the sound of the big turbo.)
That being the case, when I've had time to get a paycheck or two, I'm tempted to find some kind of beater 4x4 to play with while I'm out here. (hopefully something that's at least half reliable, has a working A/C and is cheap enough that if I can't get it sold again I won't feel too bad - although to be honest, if I end up liking it this might be an excuse to have a pet project without pissing my wife off.... ) Hell, if it's half decent - i might use it as an even better excuse to get rid of her car.
Any suggestions? I'm not from the area - so still figuring out where stuff is. Without a ride, I haven't left the base in over a week. Managed to find a bunch of decent looking ideas on Craigs List.
If nothing else, it'll be fun to get everyone's input - good bad or otherwise - about budget 4x4's. So far I've seen some ugly (but very cool) wranglers, 4runners, cherokee's and one of the big bronco's.
I prefer stuff with some kind of back seat, manual transmission (less problems at higher mileage) and enough room to throw a mtn bike in the back. Have a few ideas already - but waiting to see what my next paycheck looks like before I make any decisions. Even saw a suzuki Samurai that looked like fun - but I don't think it had a top... and still wouldn't have room for a mtn bike without a rack.
