I just bought a new truck. It is my second truck but its my first running truck that is worthy of being called a truck. I bought it the day of my 16th birthday (made the first payment) and I'm proud of it even as it sits. I never thought that i would have something like this when i was 16. Hopefully I can get the problems it has fixed. The tranny slips but i have another one that i am currently in the process of rebuilding for it. Until then it can haul my quad around. It needs the front drivers side fender painted, it needs the fenders aligned so that the gaps inbetween the doors are equal and correct. It needs the exhaust redone to my liking. Right now it's too quiet :). I know its not perfect but I thought i would post it anyways. Hopefully I can keep motivated and get it done. Tell me what ya think. BTW gas mileage estimation is about 8-12mpg :P but i have a saturn 4 cylinder for gas mileage. The truck has a 383 stroker motor in it with a th350 transmission and high rear end gears not sure of exact numbers. It is lowered approx. 6 inches. Once again tell me what ya think. Criticise too, I can use some ideas for it :-P and I don't want anyone thinking that im some kid whose parents buy everything for them, i started my first job a month ago and I'm paying for it myself just as i did my quad.
