dont get a truck unless you really need it.
i got a 4.7 v8 dakota 4x4 as my 2nd vehicle....im 17 years old. i thought it was the sickest thing after buying it.....went against my mom saying"why get a truck" and bought it without thinking twice
now i've had it for about 2 months and now im beginning to regret the decision.
i "had to have a truck" to fit in with the riding scene, and because i had it in my mind that i would always have needs for a truck.
well, ive came to realize that i dont enjoy beating my nice stuff up driving on the rutted up beach and mud, i dont tow stuff, i dont even need to transport my quad because i ride from my driveway.
now i spend 100 bucks a week on gas pretty much just to look cool....i work on top of going to college so i can easily afford it, but it still pisses me off.
i love the truck, and it turns heads, but now that i realize how much of my hard earned money actually goes in the tank, it pisses me off.
i want a drz400sm for next year and at this rate...i def. wont have the cash for one.
soooo in conclusion, im now going to try trading or selling my truck for a 4cyl car that i shouldve just got in the first place. looking for a acura rsx/vw gli/nissan altima/new style civic, etc
point of this post is to let the kids know....dont get a pickup unless your ready to shell out some bank or you actually are going to use it to it's potential.;)
