I can't sell my truck.

Recently, my truck timing chain broke. However, it was changed 15k miles ago during an engine rebuild. Thankfully my mechanic is going to honor his work to repair the damages. Then I found out that my engine have bent valves and so forth. I'll cut it short. I was going to sell my truck after the repairs, but my girlfriend for several years whom was with me when I had the truck till now text me last night. Her text changed my mind, and I felt the same ever since having the thought of selling it. No matter the damage to the vehicles, it would be priceless because I can never replace the memories I have in the truck. Thus, I decided to keep it.

 

i wouldnt sell it

 

I agree. If it means so much don't sell it.

Take it as a sign to upgrade it and make it better!

 

huh?

text? that must have been a great text!! congrats are in order?

 

It's gonna be in the shop for two months... I'm currently driving a civic 2013 and I hate it. I keep bumping into the dam car. It's to dam small for me. Thank god i'm leasing it.

 

Buy a Colorado and try and sell that.

 

Pics of said gf/future fiance.

 

"yet" would worry me a bit...

 

I am confused a little on the "bent valves" part. That engine is, like the others, a non-interference engine. Even if the valves were fully opened, the pistons could not contact or bend the valves. I smell a little BS from whoever told you the valves were bent.

 

IT'S A TRAP!!!

 

It's code for "Wait until we can trade it in for the minivan"

 

x2...Bent valves, bad timing chain on a newly rebuilt engine at 15k miles..I would find another mechanic.

 

tell your gf to tell the good Dr. that I love his books!

 

Dump her and the truck... problem solved.

 

lol, will do. Her family is also related to issac newton. Her grandma is a decedent of the newton's family.

 

I hope this is true, the mechanic showed me the valve was shut and indicated it would be a bent valve.

 

lol oh that's crazy! She's not really related to Dr. Suess too, is she?

 

With the kind of memories are you guys are making in that thing you probably will not be able to sell it.

 

What about Mr.Rogers?

 

Not gonna lie but it is a truck after all so why not just upgrade to a 2014 Tacoma
