It seems the 75% of the F-150s, Silverados/Sierras, and Rams have a crew cab /5.5' bed these days.

I need to modify this just a bit.

I was at Menard’s yesterday looking for a few 2x4s.  They were $12.00 each!!!  I walked out empty handed.  My project can wait a while.

Some electric impacts have no torque setting.  They are all or none.

Porsche engines belong behind the driver, No Dice!

Cut the price in half and I might be interested.

Out of the 20 or so trucks in my neighborhood, only 2 tow anything, and those trucks are an F-250 and a Silverado 2500. Everyone else could use an EV truck, except for me because I’m a cheap bastard that only buys sub-$10,000, 15 year old vehicles and runs them into the ground.

Somewhere between half and a quarter, I’ll fill up. I don’t want to wait too long because it hurts putting $75 in at a time.

I had to part with my ‘97 S-10 last year. It had 311,000 miles. I bought it in ‘02 with 55,000 miles. Best. Vehicle. Ever.

The advantage of driving a $500 shitbox comes into focus when dealing with these assholes.

equal rights = equal lefts

More like the 30% rule.  There are a LOT of assholes out there.

My least powerful ride is the vehicle that I currently drive: a 2003 Ranger with 143 horses and 154 torques. Around town it is “ok”, but it scares the shit out of me trying to get to 65 merging onto the interstate.  It truly is gutless.

In 29 years, I have spent $59,000 on 1 new car, 7 used cars, and 2 new motorcycles. $2034.48 per year.

I’m a GM guy, but I’d daily the hell out of a Town Car like that.

It’s nice looking, but...... that bed is just way too small to be practical. I’m a small truck guy (had an S-10, now driving a small, older Ranger) that uses the bed frequently but hardly ever tows anything. My deep freeze died this week and I needed to get a new one that night before all my food was ruined. A new…

That looks like a lot more fun than the bike the article was about.

I buy used vehicles with at least 100,000 miles on them. I just don’t trust 4 bangers with unknown quality and quantity of care from the previous owner to last 200,000-300,000 miles. I’m sticking with v6s and v8s and taking the mileage penalty.

Easy-peasy across the river from STL in St. Clair county. The National Guard has things ran like a well oiled machine. My fiance was able to get an appointment within minutes.

In 10 years, this car will be as driveable as a 10 year old pc’s ability to run Cyberpunk 2077 on high settings.
