Just one of those days.
 
Do you ever get discouraged about your truck wanting it to be better but your low on money and dont have time to work on it . and problems keep arising. srry just had to vent feeling down about the old truck.:(

Yes, However at least it is paid for. I cringe everytime I make out my car payment.

Yep...
1) Everytime I see it sitting in the car port, not being driven for weeks at a time
2) Everytime I get in it and see that the fuel and speedo guages are not working and that little things need to be replaced
3) Everytime I put gas into it
4) Everytime I am out with my import buddies at the drag strip or hangingout I think about selling my truck to get more money to make my car faster
5) Everytime I ride my bike, I think about selling the truck to get money to dump into the bike

...but thanks to this site, I have a newfound interest in my truck. I have started to work on the interior now.

bagged81, your truck is sweet. Dont ever sell it!

I think about selling my truck sometimes, but I know I would regret it. Its paid for, it costs close to nothing to keep iton the road, and its fun to drive. I wish it had factory A/C, thats one thing I really dont like about my truck. But in away thats good too. Because if I ever get money Im going to hotrod this truck out and I would ditch the a/c anyway. Maybe one day :)

MSL i get that feeling all the time and actually lol i have such big eyes and dreams and such a small wallet . To make matters worse ive got a girl friend like a pitbull whose got me on a budget with the truck so i only get to spend a half a yard or so every week or two. I keep thinking how much more money id have for the truck if i kicked her a** to the curb :burnout:
:flag: :bowtie:

MSL 04-07-2003 07:06 PM

Ya i have big eyes and dreams too but not alot of money i have three kids and a wife and kids take alot more than most think. I guess i should of started my truck first then kids later.lol but today is just one of those days even worse than most.

My momma told me there would be days like that..............she just didn't tell me there would be so damn many of them.

Yes, we all have the blues once in awhile............

Blues
 
Hi ,
about selling my truck , I thought of doing it not later as yesterday...
But , even if I have breakdowns sometimes , I have such a fun while driving it ...
It is my girl friend who each time has forbidden me to sell it.
She drives it sometimes and she enjoyes the rides ...

I'm also low on money , but I know that doing a lot of maintenance myself , I can spend money to something else ( kids , girl friend , etc...)

time to upgrade her status from girlfriend to WIFE... she's a keeper!

the baron 04-08-2003 03:30 PM

Marriage is almost scheduled
 
Yes , 1Faastc10 ,
the marriage is a surely planned event , we just didn't decided yet when it will happen...

I had to wait till I was 35 years old to discover what love really is.
It was worth waiting so long...

She loves the 1977 Impala that I gave to her...

No need to say that our ceremony car will be an american one.
I have already a friend's car in sight , a 1959 Buick Invicta Convertible...
Or maybe a Blazer Convertible , if I find one , they are not common here

Love is all !

Cheers

yea so much i wanna do but now i just spent 10,000 bucks on my house, because of the STUPID inspector didnt find these damages. they had to rebuild the whole half of my house. and i still have to sheetrock, tape and float, texturize and paint. DAM when will my luck change. anyone out there a civil lawyer that wants a case PRO-BONO. i will pay if we WIN. i would really like to sue the inspector but cany afford that.
