    Man, I drive a truck, 500 a month, will be paid off in less than 2 years, I get a lot of utility out of it and I got it from my brother who put some nice tires on it

    But I also hate it because it’s so fuckin big, and I hate that people might think I’m a truck freak, but it’s just my only good option right now

      I got a little jeep renegade that runs me like 350 a month…

      First time I put gas in it and realized it had a 12 gallon tank, I was all like “OMG, why?!?”. Then I drove 300 miles before the light came on and It made perfect sense :)

      Full tank doesn’t even get halfway to the $100 mark where you gotta reset the pump to fill it the rest of the way, ya know?

      500 a month could treat you a lot better at the gas pump.

        My girlfriend got a jeep renegade and I feel like it has so many more blind spots then other cars. That being said it does not have blind spot sensors on the side mirrors either since it’s older.

      I feel you. We need a truck for occasional use, so we got a high mileage retired work truck for really cheap. It’s bare bones with manual windows and no power locks but it has dual rear tires and a flatbed, so it’s perfect for when we or a neighbor needs to haul big shit. Unfortunately, so many people now assume I’m a dick size compensating fascist on the rare occasions I drive it. My wife and I are thinking of getting the cab wrapped in a rainbow with a big purple, glittery unicorn right across the hood.
