Nothing worse than..

You have come to the wrong website if you only have $80.00 a month at your disposal. Just take a bit of advise, DO NOT GET A CREDIT CARD TO FUND YOUR MODS (I did this with a Civic in high school and ran up a $12,000.00 bill)!!!!! Save up and pay for everything with cash so you do not have to worry about paying it off 6 years later. If I were you I would save a few months and put some 5100's all the way around with an AAL and call it a day until you can get a good part time job. When I was in school I worked as a waiter and made really good money working 3-4 nights a week and lunch on Sundays.

 

Dude i can definitely respect that man. Not to many good people like you.

 

Don't let the truck/mods consume you. Stick with your school and baseball, enjoy your youth. You'll make money eventually. Just gotta be patient.

 

yeah im definitely not gonna use a credit card. Im saving up everything i get !

 

My head is exploding right about now.

 

this guy right here is someone id listen to.

along along with you as well

and tacodawg,

please please please please pleaseeeeeee enjoy high school. i tried my best to be involved with everything so i didnt have any regrets. i dont have hardly any. Like they said above, the money will come eventually. I dont plan on have my truck done for another 4 or 5 years. i have big plans for it which will cost a lot of money


edit: if you dont get a credit card, you can always get a debit card. thats what i have and i try not to use it. it has all my money so i pretty much save it. haha

 

thanks for the advice guys

 

i have mixed feelings about this. when i was 16, i got straight A's, played two varsity sports, and had a part time job that included weekends. i also worked all summer long starting at age 14, as a caddy at the local golf course. i made a couple hundred bucks a week over the summer and i was damn proud of the money i earned from hard work. i had to cut the grass at my house and did alot of other chores for which i got nothing more than a pat on the back from my parents, never mind a sweet toyota pickup. my first vehicle in hs was a 14 year old chevy that i paid for myself. basically i broke my ass, but working as a teenager truly taught me the value of a dollar and i would never trade that experience.

nothing against you personally OP, you sound like a good kid, and i'm sure you are appreciative for what you have, but i have no intention of buying my kids a vehicle like that. and my kids are going to have a job at 16 as well, of that i am certain. just from my own personal observation, the kids who were given everything in life never had much care for taking care of anything, nor were very driven to succeed.

if you want to mod your truck, go get a job and save your pennies. you will feel alot better about having made the money yourself, i promise you. good luck.

 

Never fear. Sounds like you've got folks that will take care of you. My dad gave me a really cool truck as my first vehicle while I was in High School. I remember like it was yesterday. After that, my dad and I shared many moments together building my truck. Of course I included him in all that I wanted to do and asked for his input. I know the phrase gets old but patience my friend. You'll get everything you've ever wanted on your truck that you'll get bored quickly with it. One thing at a time. Hell... I don't even have a nav in mine yet and its 6 years old. Is it too late to drop another 1K on audio? You'll be fine brother. Focus on the here and now... school is that's what's on your plate now. Good luck. Beautiful truck!

 

Didn't mean to piss you off Sir. And at 22 years of age you do hold some street creds here, as does the OP who just got a second gen from his parents at 16 years of age because he got good grades. I remember when I got good grades, hell my parents let me eat. But back then we had it "rough"

 

get a job and put it all towards the truck
i started out stock a year ago

 

Damn that's your truck ? Niceeeee

 

fuckin amen..............plus remember the more shit you do to your truck the more can go wrong which just costs more. You are so young......long life ahead of ya. BTW......im 29 and cant afford to do some of the shit these guys are doing......I admire but dont want to see the costs of some of these guys rigs. If I had lots of cash sure.......i dont lol

 

thanks man yeah i saved up till i was 16 and my used most of my money on my truck

 

Im only 16 too but i know one thing that helps... stay single.

 

AMEN
