so ive been on the hunt for the perfect vehicle for a while....for a while i wanted a jeep, then an eclipse (i dunno what got into me), then a lil b2000...and ended up with this!

1998 b2500, its a single cab short bed, 108k miles, 5speed 4cyl. and the great part is that alot of the miles are from being towed because as you will see in one of the pics, it has a tow bar welded to the front of the truck! lol
any ways, it was a great deal and is in great condition....and for the first vehicle i personally have ever purchased, i think i did alright.

plans are to learn to fully drive stick first lol, then theres some fender damage that it came with that i have to get fixed, then its onto cleaning it up and eventually putting a 4/5 drop on it. Its alot peppier than my truck thats for sure! On with the pics







and as my ranger is as of now....in need of a wash and a tune up....thats gunna have to wait...seeing as im now out of money....its gunna suck being poor..

 

so the mazda is gonna be ur DD and ranger is ur toy or u sellin it?

 

im never sellin my ranger...or atleast im keepin it for as long as possible.
the ranger is paid for (the vehicle itself and insurance) by my parents....yes bag on me all you want but i still paid for all the mods...and all the gas it eats; and the mazda is what im payin for now...in terms for absolutely everything.

so i guess you could say both are my DD's

btw, im a 17 year old still in high school, so i think im doin alright...gotta love having a job and nothing to really pay for...well until now.

 

congrats on buying your own car and making it a stick!! thats bar far the best way to learn how to drive it, your in almost the exact same position im in, parents bought my first ranger too and im 17 lol.

 

i wish i got it like u 2 haha.. 19, unemployed, truck payment, phone payment, insane insurance.. haha

 

lol ya, but see, i have insurance and two gas tanks

so basically, i have your phone bill covered right there!

 

what ur insurance like?

 

well idk yet.
cool thing is, is since my dads name is on the truck since i cant legally put it completely under mine, insurance is gunna be through him.....so im prolly gunna be payin my dad like idk...800 every period?....wild guess though

 

haha not bad.. compared to my 3900/yr on insurance

 

well like i said, wild guess.
prolly gunna be half of what yours is...im hoping.

 

haha no ****.. wish mine was half of what mine actually is

 

ya well...your crazy.

 

thats the cheapest i could get.. 326/month.. next one closes was 414/month with half the coverage lol

 

oh god.....well i guess i do have it pretty well!

 

Wow, $3900 a year!! I pay $700 a year and have full coverage (with almost the highest coverage). I think $700 is high.

 

I hate you. haha. $3300 a year here WITH 30% discount

 

yeah its horrible.. no power options, a 4x2, no room for passengers, a 3.slow and its 3900/year.. how does that make sence?

 

so should i rename this thread the "post your insurance rates" thread?

 

i dont understand whyd youd get rid of the ranger over the mazda, the ranger is no much nicer (not hating on the mazda, but never really cared for the way they look)

 

you obviously were not reading very well.

 

x2

 

I dont understand buying a second truck? what exactly for again?

 

a new project, he wanted a change, he felt like spending money, or he was just plain bored? who knows. its not a bad looking truck though. haha i wouldnt mind having a project vehicle..but it would either be car..or a bigger truck..except i cant afford either with college in the fall. but def looks like a fun little truck

 

My bad man.. /threadhack

 

Nice new truck.... great condition!
