Well, I sold the del Sol tonight...
 
I felt a sense of loss as I watched her drive away in another man's arms...

Well, now I have a large wad of cash ($4,150) to be exact, and no vehicle to get to work in the morning. I really hate to say this to you guys, but I'm going to have to buy a truck.

Yes, a Ford Ranger pickup. I'm in a band and we're doing really well, and I need a way to haul my drums and band equipment. Besides, the del Sol wasn't practicle at all, and I want something with a little more power and cargo capacity. But I feel like I've lost my best friend watching someone else drive Fiona (my del Sol) away.

*sigh* someone comfort me...



:no: ;(

no ford... u will die.... becuz i will kill u..... its a ford.... gonne spending money everyday fixing that thing...

GeneralDzur 04-27-2004 10:28 PM

Why!?!? I'll tell you why!!! Because the del Sol wasn't practicle!! I can't live only having two seats!! I have to move to Ohio soon! I have to haul stuff! I have to be able to take more than one person in my car!!

*sob*...why I don't know...but I really did need a more practicle car. What else could I get? ARGH I hate trucks, and I hate Fords even worse...but I have no choice!!

Mazda Protege5 - too expensive for me right now
WRX wagon - too expensive
Civic hatch - underpowered, too small

I NEED cargo & passenger room

youre really limiting yourself
there are tons of choices out there that are a lot better than a pos ranger (my buddy had one and theyre absolute crap)

what about a jeep cherokee (not those crap liberties)?

B16DoHcCrx033003 04-27-2004 10:50 PM

ah s-10 those things are nice for a little truck...

and maybe you should look into a station wagon. maybe a legacy station wagon and you can easily drop a ej25 (the turbo thing) and haul ass. where in ohio are u gonna move ?

Damn straight...I don't care about the Ford knocking (I can forgive ignorance) but S-10s are pieces of shit. I speak from experience. I've got an '01 Sonoma (a GMC S-10) that is a complete and utter fuckfest. Yesterday the thing died on me at a stop. I got it home and tore it apart looking for the problem...nothing. 16,000 motherfucking miles and it's already fucking up. Fuck GM and fuck S-10s. Oh...and fuck Rangers. I'm a Ford man but why do you think I've got what is basically a GM version of the Ranger? Sure...I screwed up buying that as well, but i've got a few friends who've got Rangers and while they're decently reliable, they're worthless for towing or hauling. Oooooh...a big scary V6. Try hauling a car to the track or large furniture with that. Not gonna happen. My Sonoma has a higher payload capacity and even that's low at 3100lbs with it's might 190hp 4.3L. Just steer clear of trucklets altogether.

One thing fords make well are trucks, I'd have no problems getting one. Though I'd get the f250.

97CivicBoy 04-28-2004 09:15 AM

didnt u jus start driving or didnt u jus get that del sol or were u jus new to the forums....

GeneralDzur 04-28-2004 11:36 AM

Yeah, I bought the del Sol back in Feburary after I got out of boot camp.

I'm going up to look at a Jeep Cherokee today here in a couple of hours. See guys, the thing is - when I move and/or drive people, I need more room than two seats.

Not sure where I'm moving to in Ohio yet - I forget the name of the place.

no he was asking which bike he should buy...and then he goes and looks at a ford :rolleyes: :)

GeneralDzur 04-28-2004 08:51 PM

Well...a bike wouldn't exactly be an improvment...

I ended up buying a Jeep Cherokee 4.0L I-6. I wish I had a Honda or bike...but I don't have time for them right now.
