Face it, a pickup truck is the most logical choice in this day and age. 5 seats plus the option to haul is there if needed. It cucks the SUV and the sedan. Get in an accident? You’re safe. Plus they just look great. Gonna get a chevy silverado 1500 as my next vehicle. Inb4 europeans that cant fit a pickup on their roads but can fit endless cocks comes to tell me why I am wrong
>>28735172>Gonna get a chevy silverado 1500 as my next vehicle.excellent choice. i have one myself. they're coming out with a new gen next year too with updated 350 and 400 ci small blocks. cheers.
If I were buying a new pickup it would be straight from the Heavy Duty class of their respective make. They don't have to comply as strictly with EPA regulations and as a result are much more ruggedly, and simply built. I mean, the 7.3 F250 HD costs as much as a similar trim F150. You're just getting more truck per $ at that point and no cylinder deactivation. MPG is probably from the 90s.
>>28735241>more truck per $more useless crap per $
>>28735248useless crap to an apartment dwelling euro cuck, sure lol
>>28735172>$40k+ MSRPhow much money do you make? at least $160k, right?
>>28735258How much of your paycheck goes to Mr. Shecklstein for rent?
>>28735266like $1.8k a month but i make $146k/yr and i'm saving up to buy a house 100% down (almost there.)
>>28735268You make enough to put down a pretty good down payment and are still renting while housing keeps going up? What’s wrong with you?
>>28735172>Buying a half tonI don't see the appeal. >>28735241My 6.2 has averaged 10.5 whether empty or loaded. I don't understand. >Grossed 19k from the east coast to the west and the worst tank was 9.8I was talking to another guy and he was telling me his 7.3 averages 12 empty and 10 hauling. Plow season kills empeegees though. >Western wide out XL >Boss 8/12 back blade I have considered going back to the boss v blade but I primarily do entire sub divisions anymore. The back blade makes such incredible short work on driveways I don't know if it makes sense to use a v blade as I don't do parking lots. We also haven't had much snowfall in the last few years either.
>>28735282>What’s wrong with you?probably a lot, considering he's going to pay cash for a house when rates are about to drop, inflation is high, and the stock market is increasing 15% a year.
>>28735172OP is 100% correct.other than the "they look great". Nothing looks good anymore, not the trucks fault though. This was probably the last truck that didn't have some weird grill/headlight design
>>28735282rent is cheap.>>28735295have fun paying that 50 year mortgage, wagie.
>>28735315this is a very low iq post.
>>28735320It reaffirms the belief that rentoids should not be allowed to vote
>>28735320if inflation were high then why would rates drop?
>>28735342to encourage job growth.
>>28735349you didn't answer my question. generally if inflation is high then rates go up, to slow the velocity of money.
>>28735350
gonna upgrade my car now that i have a big raise, should i get a '22 tacoma for 37k?
>>28735354rates aren't going down and taking out a 7% mortgage when inflation is 2-3% is retarded. also the stock market is long overdue for a correction, so don't count on 10-12% inflation adjusted YoY returns when the long run average is 7%.
>>28735359
>>2873536425 bps is immaterial.
>>28735376what if they do that every month?
>>28735381it won't make a big difference. mortgages track treasury yields more so than the EFFR. freddie mac has an interactive rate tracker, 30yr has gone from 6.5% in sep-25 to 6.26% today (3.7% decrease) despite EFFR going from 4.33% to 3.88% (10.4% decrease.)
>>28735394>um why would rates drop you idiot>um okay they dropped but not by a lot>um okay they dropped a lot but it doesn't matterlol
>>28735399>60 IQ struggles to understand the concept of materality
>>28735248Turn on the trip Miata. We know you can't resist seething in pickup threads about how people can see why they want more than Maverick.
>>28735402lol dude anyone with a down payment and half a brain bought in 2021 when rates were under 3%. if you didn't do that so you could pay cash 5 years later you have no right to call anyone but yourself 60 iq.
>>28735420in 2021 i was working in a different state (higher COL) and making $70k a year. why don't you tell me i should have bought a house back in 2009 after the crash?
>>28735427Housing prices have pretty much stabilized at a shitty number. I don't think you're wrong for saving money and buying outright. But, if you find they property you want, I recommend just financing the difference on as low of a term you can get. You'll own it faster anyhow with not paying rent. Also consider closing costs and other leech fees can push you over $10k.
>>28735427so you had $0 in 2021 but 5 years later you'll have the cash to buy a house? if so, good for you. sounds like you've made some smart decisions recently. but you should keep that up and not dump your life savings when you could finance and come out much farther ahead down the line.
>HAUL>HAWL>HOLLLLLGay.Whatever you have put in your micro dick compensator, i have put in my little shitbox hatchback
>>28735670Lol.That proves you live a miserable existence and are incapable of comprehending or even imagining the world outside of your little bubble.
>>28735670I doubt that very much you delusional tranny.
>>28735172New trucks are all ugly and gay and I don't want people to know how small my penis is. That's why I drive a compact cuckbox. Nobody will ever know how small my penis is because I will die a virgin.
wagon + 90s truck combo. already have an alltrack (manual) and will be purchasing my neighbors old ranger xl (manual) within the next few weeks. really cant stand the current state of trucks in terms of size and price and do not see the point in having one vehicle to have to rely on. also keeping contracting and gardening shit out of my daily is a huge plus.
>>28735717this is literally all I want, and for about $20,000
>>28735711>I drive a compact cuckbox>post a picture of a full size truckcool story bro
>>28735723that's a truck I like, not what I drive, and the first gen tundra is not a fullsize truck.
>>28735720yeah man, same. im happy to finally get one but it would be perfect if i could be one new.
>>28735728get one*
>>28735726the first gen tundra is a fullsize truck, the tacoma is toyota's compact truck
>>28735728As long as its rust free all you need to do is hit up rockauto. Theyre easy as shit to work on/restore.
These cars are made for soothing manlet egos. Not practical, doesn't even have the utility that a sports car has to a car enthusiast (you aren't one) because they aren't fun to drive. They also all auto which says it all really.
>>28735748>t. Street shitter farming (yous) @ 20 cents a reply.There you go. Now you can buy a cow dung cookie on the way home.
>>28735172I actually like Mexican lowered trucks. Body matched arch molding, reasonable suspension height, bed, and a nice interior
>>28735172>5 seatsPractically a starter vehicle then.
>>28735748Tell me youre european that cant even have a big pickup truck due to gay regulatoons without telling me
>>28735756You're acting out like a street shitter right now.
I know op is rage baiting but I think he's right.I want to buy a Toyota Tacoma from last gen. Is this my best option? Or should I look elsewhere.I'm selling my Lexus is 350 2021
>>28735744full size was different 30 years ago. the first gen tundy is perfectly sized compared to today's monstrosities but they seemed hueg back then
>>28735768I'm australian, retarded clap. I can have whatever I want.Fucking knuckle dragger that can't even spell regulation.The modifications are even worse when it comes to poserism, 99.9% of snorkels that get sold are never even used once
>>28735748I've always wanted a regular cab short bed v8 manual f150
>>28735419i think i've bullied him into submission. as soon as i post pic related he slinks back to his desi den out in brampton.
>>28735777My friend drove one. They didn't seem small but they didn't seem big either. Just right. They were smaller than American full size trucks of the era.
>>28735781 Ah so you’re just retarded then. Carry on.
>>28735781you sound perturbed
>>28735792I'm whiter, stronger, smarter and faster than you.
>>28735816Inbred as well
>>28735823>No you're not a mutt like me you must be inbredluh mao
>>28735816how many kids do you have
>>28735834more than you.
>1/2 ton>No front benchBetter off with a fullsize SUV
>>28735842give me a number, and don't lie.
>>28735172Pickups are for fuckups
>>28735748Hilarious on so many levels.>Not practical, doesn't even have the utility Can haul and tow. Can handle potholes, speed bumps, flooded roadways and storm debris on roads.. Heavy duty components that last longer. Higher resale value.> a sports car has to a car enthusiast Im not poor. I have more than 1 vehicle. My 592hp Mustang sits in the garage while I DD a 4 banger Camry. All of my trucks fit different roles- from a lifted FSB for innawoods to a standard cab long bed for taking my argon bottles in to get refilled. YOU are actually NOT the automotive enthusiast. Youre like the "racing fan" that only watches NASCAR and shits on F1, Rally and Baja.Fuck off back to /mlp/, faggot.
>>28735172>Pick Up>look inside>no apparatus for picking anything up, only holding it
>>28735253>apartment dwelling americuck
>>28735696>>28735686Lmao you butthurt queers i own a farm and love my workhorse yaris. Your faggot trucks which i could easily afford are the equivalent of a pair of panties.Now swallow my shit.
>>28737105The term "pickup truck" is from "pickup and delivery truck".They were smaller runabouts with a hed that could transport goods to and from loading docks for retail outlets that were brought to town by over-the-road cargo trucks and ships. They were smaller for city streets and back alleys in cities like New York and Chicago.
>>28737138Larp.A yaris wont even make it down my driveway in the rainy season.Post pics of your yaris hauling a trailer full of product.
>>28737105PICK UPPUT DOWN
>>28737138Must be a shit farm if that’s what you use. Your 3 sheep and a pig aren’t doing anything
>>28737175>HAWLING PRAWDUCTIll get back to you in a week but i brought two haybails across the fields yesterday with it. None of that trailer shit. just speedy rag arounds with shit jammed in the back.
>>28737176
>>28737138This is the gayest, most European thing ever said.
>>28737134not much better but at least you can maybe own a gun if you ask your local police department nicely enough
>>28735172trucks are too ugly slow and gay to be used as a daily, and how often do you need to do truck shit?
>>28736404>I have more than 1 vehicle. My 592hp Mustang sits in the garage while I DD a 4 banger CamryKek what a fagLife's way too fuckin' short to drive such ugly slow gay bullshit
>>28735172Why would I need a pickup when I already have a small diesel car? Its got all the torque I need for a fraction of the price and I can load it up with half a ton of cargo if need be without sacrificing much fuel efficiency.>inb4 I can haul more with my pickupmost of you fags ain't doing any heavy duty hauling and the only reason you ride lifted pickups is because you're compensating for small phalluses and bruised egos. Lets face it only reason you should get a pickup is if you can utilize its functions fully, ie. you need the hauling capacity and the cargo space of a flat bed, that means 99% of the time people who need it go with a diesel truck. I'm willing to bet most Americucks ITT: 1. Don't need a pickup (you cucks think it brings you status) 2. Went with a heavy gas guzzling abomination that gets terrible mpg (to put it in mutt terms), instead of a diesel since they think horsepower makes them kangz n shit (which is almost completely irrelevant for the use case of a pickup, its the torque that matters)>inb4 eurofagYes, I'm white, unlike most of this board.
>>28737368>Why would I need a pickup when I already have a small diesel car?lol stopped reading here, what a joke
>>28737368When are you people going to stop living in 1980?
>>28737187How cute.Did you get those tiny square bales from the arts and crafts store?
>>28737368hey hey be careful . You based post will send pavement princess into serious cope rage . mutt small brain can't handle fact going on grass isn't offroad and and putting 20 mcdonald's meals into flatbed isn't hauling .
>>28737368Ah yes, the brainwashed europoor.Programmed from birth by the state to believe efficiency is the most important aspect of life.The peon that lives in a 20 sq/m apartment while their tax money pays for a house for Achmed, his 3 wives and 8 kids.The same peon who cant afford the yearly displacement tax on anything larger than a 1.3L cuckbox sub compact while their MPs are being chauffeured oin limousines to the airport to board a private jet for their monthly vacation on a private island.You cant fathom a (((need))) for a truck because you do nothing and own nothingYoure pathetic.You exist only as tax revenue for the state.

>>28738775I have a .50 cal AR in a state with constitutional carry.In fact, my state is a 2nd amendment sanctuary state.I have no emissions or "safety" inspections for vehicles. Registration for my Big Block truck is 20 bucks.Meanwhile in Europe...People are in jail for holocaust denial and mean tweets. People get more jail time for defending themselves against a rapist than the actual rapist.Yearly engine displacemet tax that is higher than the vehicle is even worth.Cars denied registration renewal because of cosmetic damage.Youre a fucking joke.

>>28737175You would buy an actual truck, something with more than 2 axles to carry your produce.If you were actually a farmer.
>>28738815Your country is brown.
>>28735172
>>28738621Based. Real men do it in one trip. I gotta get some airbags on this ol' whore. Was going around picking up some scrap metal on the other farm with the dump trailer and needed to haul some hay to where I'm feeding calves out.
I bought a 2025 Frontier King Cab S trim. I didn't need a bunch of extras. I just wanted a small-ish pickup with a 6ft bed and no turbo bullshit. So far, I'm loving it.

>>28740090wow your blog is boring as shit.
>>28739702>things that never happened
>>28740108It really is quite boring. Maybe I should try it with a yaris and endanger everyone on the road. Would that be more exciting for you?
>>28735670>have shitbox hatchback>also have truckYou can do both anon.
>>28740731The Poors dont understand this because they only get 1 assigned parking spot in their apartment complex.

>>28740642If you actually had land you'd have a bdouble
>>28741840What the fuck is a bdouble? Are you trying to say dually? Or tandem axle truck? Is my pickup too large or not large enough? Because every thread where cucks like you bitch about pickups is because, "they're too big and tall and no one ever hauls anything with them" yet when presented with obvious evidence otherwise you just bury your head in the sand. I know this is just bait and you're only pretending to be retarded though right?
