I bought an F150 yesterday. Tuxedo black on grey. So far I’m pretty happy with it. That V8 has a great sound.

Why settle for 5.0 when you could’ve had 5.7?

Only the biggest for a truck manufactured in Texas!

Not yet. Coming from my A4, I’m still trying to get used to the size.

You can get a 5.7 SR for $34,165.

The Limited starts at $45k.

That’s not too bad. I purposely bought something with as little tech as possible.

these fords have really grown on me despite the fact I would probably go GM cuz LS motors.

I really just wanted a barebones truck. V8 and a decent stereo. The 5.0 has some good pull on it.

These days you’re more likely to be singled out if you say you DON’T like teh warz. Your son will fit in! Unlike my older brother... Having star wars bedsheets as a senior in high school in 1994 did not serve him well.

Thats why I like the fords. Something about the design if just more truck like probably doesnt make sense trying to explain it but I hate trucks that are trying to be ground breaking or modern in their design. simple is better in my mind.

thats why I think trucks are cool. You want the top of line most powerful engine and rubber instead of carpet they can do that.

You’ll get used to it in no time. The main PITA about my truck was the terrible, ill-fitting, fogged over canopy.

Nice, those are great trucks. Any mods planned?

The dealer provided me with the Carfax per my request. They prviously told me it was completey clean, but the Carfax said it was a lemon/buyback, but still wouldn’t budge on the price. I decided to back out.

Light bars everywhere! Just kidding. Probably a bed cover, some better speakers maybe an exhaust down the road. I just wanted a truck with a big motor and no gadgets.

Good idea on backing out.

Dude they gave $1500 for my A4. It was a kick in the gut.

Yup, so therefore I’m still looking around....

Maaaaaan, that’s low. Looked like yours was in good shape as well.

144k miles and I knew I was going to need a clutch and brakes soon. They’ll probably resell it for $4000

Kinja'd!!! "Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
02/12/2017 at 18:45, STARS: 1

I really like it.

02/12/2017 at 19:05, STARS: 0

I got $3,500 or so for my ‘97 with 145,000 and a bunch of mods. But I didn’t trade it in.

Do you think you’ll miss driving manual? When I get a truck, I probably won’t have a manual car for around five years.

Kinja'd!!! "shop-teacher" (shop-teacher)
02/12/2017 at 19:05, STARS: 0

How many miles on it? If you don’t mind me asking, how much did you pay? I’ve been more than a bit sticker shocked looking at truck prices lately.

Kinja'd!!! "Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
02/12/2017 at 19:28, STARS: 1

It’s a 2013 with just under 60k on the clock and I paid about 2ok. It’s not loaded with much. Basic radio with cd, no back up camera. Just what I was looking for. Big motor and no tech.

Kinja'd!!! "Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
02/12/2017 at 19:31, STARS: 1

I’ll probably miss it for fun trips where I can open it up, but not in day to day traffic. The mrs. said on the way home from the dealer that she’s well aware I’ll need a project car in the future. I’ll end with something manual down the road.

I would like an older TT. I’ve always loved that car. In white with grey leather. See I’m already planning it out!

Oooh, that sounds nice.

Kinja'd!!!

You see, I’ve planned out my entire B5 S4 wishlist. Repair parts, custom made parts and these two wishlists on ECS tuning. For about $15,000 I can have the car of my dreams.

You forgot window regulators

02/12/2017 at 21:32, STARS: 0

Hahah, I’ve never had one of those go bad.

I did have a wiring issue on the rear right door which caused the regulator to not work, but the speaker didn’t work as well.

I’m going to guess it will not fit in your garage.

Kinja'd!!! "Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
02/25/2017 at 17:36, STARS: 0

Nothing fits in the garage. Between my tools and bench and my wife’s catering stuff you can barely walk though it.

I have been given authorization to widen the driveway though. I’m think just gravel at this point.

Kinja'd!!! "Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo" (thetomselleck)
02/25/2017 at 17:37, STARS: 0

If you need an extra bed to haul gravel, I know a guy with a truck.

Kinja'd!!! "Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
02/25/2017 at 17:40, STARS: 1

Kinja'd!!!

I WILL be taking you up on that. Or I’ll have it dropped and need labor in exchange for frosty cold beverages and food. I’ll widen to the trees in the background and probably 3 feet of grass will go.

Kinja'd!!! "Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo" (thetomselleck)
02/25/2017 at 17:42, STARS: 0

Do you have a local topsoil/gravel/sand lot? Asking because I definitely can’t haul much and don’t want to be on the freeway. Luckily for my property live within 1 mile of Pacific Topsoil.

Kinja'd!!! "Spaceball-Two" (spaceball-two)
02/25/2017 at 17:47, STARS: 0

There’s one in Kenmore. Just down the hill and conveniently located next to 192 Brewery.

Kinja'd!!! "Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo" (thetomselleck)
02/25/2017 at 17:51, STARS: 0

Nice. You should get those hard plastic barriers with the holes for staking so your gravel doesnt get splashed everywhere. My wife doesn’t like how they look but dammit this is about function.
