ok. so here goes. i know yall have heard me talk about jeeps and all that, but i think i found a truck. its a 99 f150 reg cab short bed 5 speed 4wd for $5500. pretty much stock. only 109k on the clock. and very clean.

id stay away from full sizes in pa...i know ill start a shit storm, but full sizes are too big around here. trucks anyway, the blazers and broncos arent SO bad. but a fullsize truck with a 6 foot bed is too much. IMO anyway.

No tone, it looks nice... but IMHO its the worst of all worlds. Can't tow anything big with the V6 and wheeling a full size rig isn't always ideal... looks like a nice truck though

even though its a reg cab and not a ext or long bed? but its mainly for the house and my needs. wheeling is only an after thought. im gonna actually get it tonight. heading that way in a little bit.

i think every do it yourself'er should own a truck, i'd like to get rid of my car and find a little truck for hauling and stuff.

but for wheeling, i'd have something else. buy that truck, and find an xj super cheap (its easy) and build it slowly

yup, if that truck was a V8 with towing potential i'd be way more on board with this plan lol

haha i hear yall. i looked at some v8's while i was there. but i got them to 5 flat. cant beat that. and my insurance is gonna drop. we found out my mustang has full coverage so now it should drop. thats good news. so once i get rid of that ill get some new tires (the ones that are on it are good but theyre winter tires) and maybe some other things. we'll see what i need or want for it to make it a little more fun off road, cause i will wheel it a little bit. but it runs great, super clean, has 4wd and a bed. which is all important and necessary for the new house me and my fiance have.

not i can meet up with yall on a meet and greet!! haha
