Thread: My new old truck

Hey that will get you back and forth won't it. I'm still driving my old Chevy and it's going strong.

Hey Mark, I love it. Motor runs good, nothing leaking. Only has 161,000 miles on it. Motor has been well maintained. I paid cash, so how much gas do I have to use to make up the differrence between a new truck and this one lol! Besides, old trucks are what I can afford. I can tell you this. Sunday I went fly fishing at a friends lake. The value of the fly fishing equipment that was being hauled was worth more than what I paid for the truck lol!

Enjoy it Tim.

Just put some money in my 95' Chivy and she runs goooood! I love that old truck ride.

What? Your not buying a foreign model that you can't afford? Pres. O is gonna be disappointed in you! I, on the other hand think that is a great truck! It doesn't lean to the passenger side because of a payment book in the glove compartment!

Older means less electronic/computer stuff to break. Nice buy.

I love the "if it works, fix it" mentality of today.
