How do/would you treat your brand new truck?

this..

Its what I got it for.. I let go of this for it because I got tired of it just sitting around looking good lol.. I loved it, but it was useless...



Hauling materials for a small 12' section fence with just over 400 miles on her...


After doing some trimming...


At recycling grounds...


On the way back.. The obligatory poser shots..




Job before and after..

 

Oh and I still have a semi fast car lol.. Just not as fast..

 

One word........TRUCK! Do what you wish. Mall crawl, or hit the woods. (I prefer the later, with the scrapes and dents to prove it).

 

Damn. You had a brand new 5.0 mustang, got rid of it for a brand new tacoma AND a brand new WRX? Spend less than $2K on that WRX and you'll forget all about that mustang.

 

Yea.. Loved the pony but it was just not worth having for other than the fair weather cruise.. My wife was wanting another ride and I wanted another truck so we agreed that if I got rid of the Mustang it had to be something worthwhile.. We agreed on either an Evo or the WRX.. The WRX won.. We ordered the Rex about 5 months before ordering the Taco..

I actually got rid of this to obtain my 5.0...

 

+1 that's a pretty dam good come up! truck for off road and utility and the suby to go fast and sideways in the snow. lol

I thought I was the crazy one. Started with an old 97 F-150, then a 2007 WRX, then a 2007 350Z, then a 2007 F-150, then a 2007 Tacoma, then a 2008 FJ Cruiser, then now back to a 2004 STi. Not even kidding.

 

Funny you should mention the 350Z.. Thats what I got rid of for the Tundra lol.. Great minds think alike..lol..

 

That's awesome. I had the VQ35HR they started in 07. A V6 that redlines to 7500

 

I liked driving that car.. Only thing was the electronics were horrendous and Nissan customer service was even worse. I actually didnt think twice on letting that car go.. Never even considered a Nissan ever since..

 

What do you mean? Like the stereo and stuff didn't work? Or you had electronic engine trouble?

 

Windows and power locks mainly.. it was weird..

 

ROCKS,SAND,MUD, GRAVAL,WATER, SALT WATER AKA OCEAN LOL. OH AND SNOW. I THINK THAT SOMES IT UP.
BEST PART I GOT FREE PINSTRIPING ON BOTH SIDES ON A TRAIL THAT I FOUND OUT WAS NOT A TRAIL.
CANT ARGUE WITH FREE HAHAHA

 

got the truck from a family member about 3 weeks ago w/ it having 14k miles and the first weekend of having it I hit the trails/mud, almost rolled it on the first off road session haha

 

Wait until it gets it's first door ding in the Lowe's parking lot, then take her to the Dez and tear it up!

 

I drove my off the lot and straight to some trails. Nothing crazy enough to do any damage, but I wanted to see what it could do.

Here's a pick from a couple months later. It's sitting on the front and rear bumper and I had to get pulled through.

 

A few weeks after buying my Taco I took my dog to the lake and found a good place to test the stock flex...Now we go every weekend and the rest is history

 

Few weeks after I got my truck I took it to the beach and then waited till I was out of warranty to get her dirty and go crazy

 

I've been babying mine since I got it last monday with 2 miles, but who knows what will happen after a few beers this weekend at the Tough Country Outdoor Confernece
