sad but optimistic

Don't waste time and money modding a truck at this stage of your life. Start saving money for a house and investing instead. With the markets and housing prices so low, this is the best time to buy if you're thinking long term.

Why put money into mods that will lose value almost instantly and lower the resale value of your vehicle? I think a lot of the LT rigs on TW are cool, especially if you are going to use them like a lot of guys do. But it's a money pit. If you're going to mod the crap out of something, start with an even older vehicle that's already depreciated in price significantly. Use the money you saved on the purchase price to buy the components.

 

So would I need to go back to school for a new certification to do this?

 

Good idea!! Then after sell the truck and buy the wheels, I can save up to buy... a truck!!!!

 

What is this moneys you speak of? I think thats what they used in the old days. It was green and made of paper... Now you use plastic moneys and buy whatever you want.

 

25? Take some responsibility for you life, get a job, get a place of your own, don't live off of someone else's hard work, THEN you can get a sweet vehicle. Shit I'm 24, owned my own house for 2 years (thought it's nothing special) and don't accept a dime from anyone by myself... But I can tell by your "wish list" that you have NO concept of reality... so I'm pry just a "bitch"

Cheers

 

Yeah no shit! This country abandoned rational thought processes and common-f*****-sense a long time ago.
This is mostly a social statement but may have a trace amount of political applicability.......
You'll be fine OP. Just get through school and avoid debt as much as possible. Great advice to look at more solid investment such as a home and truck mods in moderation as disposable income allows. Avoid the plastic, cc companies are evil.

 

I blame MTV for this.

 

work for it man, i was lucky to have my tacoma given to me, but i still have a job and go to school working for something better than what i do now, you just gotta work and save man! be smart with your money!
