Please Talk Me Out of It!

I need another project like a whole in the head, but this keeps calling to me. Tell me why I shouldn't buy it, not why I should.

Do you own it yet?

EWW ITS LIKE OLD AND STUFF. AND THERES NO BED.

What would you want with that rusty piece of crap? It's going to need a paint job.

In reply to Swank Force One:

You're right, except its not all that rusty, and it would make a nice hauler for my Mustang and Ford tractor.

You're bad at this.

In reply to Swank Force One:

No, you are.

because it would be able to haul heavy things WAY to easy?

The engine is going to be too small to haul anything heavy at freeway speed. I would upgrade it to a diesel. Not to mention a few grand for a bed and fith wheel.

Yuck. The back is practically useless without a 5th wheel and those cost 2x the truck's value!

Nevermind the nav systems on these are way out of date.

In reply to Giant Purple Snorklewacker:

I hate being the 5th wheel.

The seat does not look original, that will take points off at the concours.

Where are you going to take your tractor? Your Mustang looks streetable. And you already have two bigass pickups.

HTH

In reply to GameboyRMH:

I would take my tractor anywhere I wanted. Yes, my mustang is streetable, and also haulable. And I actually have three big ass pickups. See how wrong you are? And I don't know what HTH means.

Because a whole (sic) in the head would be a very strange phenomenon. Beyond that, I got nuthin'

In reply to Giant Purple Snorklewacker:

I haz map.
I would turn it into a rollback hauler, no 5th wheel needed.

Doh!

For $600, what are you waiting for?!

I guess I should be glad I didn't see that a month ago when I had a little bit of money and time.

you don't need this. It sounds like that you need to do brake job and who knows i heard people sometimes even need to replace the bushings, spark plugs, and tires. That's a lot of work to save the 40k from buying a new truck.

I want one line that but with an extended cab for the kids. You know, cuz I WANT one.

And I'd have to convert it to four wheel drive cuz you know, that'd be awesome!

That's the best bad argument I've heard so far!

Don't do it. People you don't know or whose opinions you don't value might think less of you.

How is that for a bad argument?

Pretty bad. I'm not even sure I understood it.
