Wow! Do you guys need to duke it out? JK! I've got at least 10 years on both of ya. Plus a wife, 2 kids, 2 dogs, and taking care of my dad, who is 63.v What people have going on in their life is reguardless!

Anyways, I had some lady came up to me the other day, she was getting out of her hybrid as I was getting out of my '06 F-150 Supercrew. She asked me why would I buy such a big truck and waist so much on gas. I told her two things. 1) With the K&N filter, Magnaflow dual exhaust, and a soft tonneau cover, My milage went from 13 city to 16 city. 2) Most inportantly, it's my life, it's my money, it's only money, and you only live once! Live it up!

I've always wanted to build a mini, and damn it, at 32 years of age, I'm gonna do it!! There, I said my peace.

P.S. V8, I still hope you get that truck

 

You should have asked why she paid so much for a vehicle that gets as good of mileage as an 80's tercel, civic, or any other small car. Oh and told her that her car is enviromentally unfriendly to produce compared to normal cars.

 

Hey nvrenufedge I started my 88 Toy Project when I retired @ 55,now 62,& still @ it!!

 

nice ride

 

lol this threads not a total waste... yeah Im glad you drive your ford even though it should be a titan lol jk...who cares what anyone drives !!! like you said one life.. live it the best you friggin can !!!!


anyways, got in contact with the guy today, he emailed me about his busy scheduale from 8am to 9pm or something, he works on the air force base where our member grounds lives. But the truck is at a shop right now getting new compresors installed. Will be done wednesday. he said he would call me as soon as he can, so as far as im concerned, shes mine

 

your truck is famous bro, a friend of mine showed me pics of your truck on his digital camera lol so he saw it in person somewhere.... love what ya did to it and im sure ill love what your going to do to it.. even though its not how i would want it for myself, im still jealous !

 

That truck has been sitting here at macdill gas station for ever. back is down on the ground with the front high to the sky. something must be wrong with it. its been over a week and i just passed by today, ITS STILL SAME SPOT!!! looks like it has a problem or just leaving it there. but from my understanding its not supposed to be parked there unless it is getting worked on at the tire shop. JUST A HEADS UP!!!


OH! the pictures dont looks alot better then in person! Sorry but just my opinion

 

yeah the compressors are out, Idk he told me that its getting new compressors installed and will be done wednesday.... so your saying it looks better in person or in pictures ? Is it where I can drive by it and look at it or is it behind the gate ? give me details Jim ! thanks lol

 

Its behind the gate and NO you cant drive to see it unless i sponsor you in again. In the pictures it looks better in person it looks like someone **** on there hand and went to paint on the truck. you can see the fisheye paint job and ripples around the truck. Just my 2cents. For me I WONT BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thats awesome! Try and convince my wife that I'm not too old do be doing this. Lol! Btw, saw your truck in the Sept. issue of MiniTruckin' in the Danger Zone '08 coverage. Nice truck!

 

k, thanks for the info, if anything I will repaint it since that doesnt cost too much...Im still going to try and look at it before I turn it down completly

 

sounds good. Dont say i didnt tell ya.

 

haha, wouldnt do that to ya... when you gunna get some time off and help me with the 2jz swap lol.

 

If you can pay me more then what i get now hey anytime

 

so you need to not buy that titan and buy my truck..lol

 

No offense intended, BUT, Ide buy the runner WAY before the Titan, BUT, thats just me. If you were closer man, Youde have $'s in hand . . .

 

Ive already got a titan, Im guessing you mean frontier ?
