>Dude you don't NEED any kind of truck>Just fold all the seats down in your econoegg cuckover and pile 20 bags of mulch to the ceiling and spend the next 2 years vacuuming it out lmao
>>28942160>*is 5'5"*
>>28942161Ya but im a girl so >.<
>>28942160I did 25 bags of mulch in my ‘23 A6 with the seats folded down. What the fuck do I care? It’s a lease.
>>28942163*formerly a man
>>28942160I don't need to carry 20 bags of mulch, but if I did I would probably just spend the $40 to rent a truck from home depot
If you have the kind of property that requires that shit then you can have a Miata and a Silverado, I do.
>>28942160>she uses faggy monsanto bullshithdmiCouldn't be Me
>>28942160congrats brodoesn't change the fact that 95% of trugg owners will never haul more than one or two of these
>I need to buy a truck for that one time in seven years when I need to carry stuff.>in this era of home delivery
>>28942222Miata guy here. I hate trucks. But I do have a small farm and a very long gravel driveway. I get cubic yards of gravel, sand, mulch, and dirt multiple times a year. I have a car trailer I sometimes use to get another cubic yard.I hate driving the thing.Basically, if you need it for your own use, you're already rich enough to buy a nice car and just use the truck for work stuff. If you need it for your landscaping job and live in an apartment? Yeah, I get why you'd have one as your only vehicle. If you work in a cubicle and your idea of "hauling" is getting a big TV, you don't need a truck (fine if you simply want it though).Picrel, random cubic yard from Google.
>>28942235Picrel, man, fuck phoneposting.
>>28942235>The thingThe Silverado. Goddamn I didn't proofread that at all.
>>28942180yeah for 20 bucks its a no brainert. rented a truck to move a shitload of lumber I just bought
>>28942237I can fit all of that dirt in my hatchback and if it rains it won't turn into mud. hatchbacks > trucks
>>28942160Rent a trailer for $20 or buy one. You get way more space and can choose between open and closed. Truccucks are so retarded. In the one event every 5 years I need a truck, I can go to Uhaul or Home Depot and rent a number of different sizes. You don't need a truck, you are larping as masculine or rugged.
>>28942160HehThought those were giant tacos from the thumbnail
>>28942160>and spend the next 2 years vacuuming it out lmao
>>28942160How many times a year do you fill up the bed with soil? Rent a u-haul for $20.
>>28942280or i just own a truck and don't need to rent anything lol
>>28942342I don't need a truck often enough to feel like spending more than $20 on it
>>28942180>>28942241Bullshit larping faggots.You've never rented one.>$19 for first 75 minutes.>$19 for each additional 15 minutes>$1.75 per mile>$69 for insurance
>>28942350Then you have a pathetic, empty life that likely revolves around Xbox and Netflix.
>>28942354try harder
>>28942160I just throw an old sheet in the trunk, put the mulch/dirt on that, then it doesn’t get dirty.>hatchbacks like the 180sx and rx7 can hold a lot of shit if you do this
>>28942160>your econoegg cuckoveryeah my econoegg cuckover
>>28942160>Justrent an actual real truck for a day when you need it, instead of larping as a gardener 361 days a year
>>28942160>having a truck>buying by the bag>not buying in bulk for the 10th of the priceONE JOB
>>28942204>faggy monsanto bullshitMy thought also. When 'Organic' is the brand, my 'fake' antenna are triggered.
>>28942247>Thought those were giant tacos from the thumbnailI had a similar thought, thought someone had turned the bed into a bbq and was grilling fish.
>>28942264Came to post this, OP is a retard
>>28942400>The basement dwelling loser can only fathom using a truck for 1 task mentioned.Pretty sad really.We thought the future was 1984 or Idiocracy but apparently we're in the Wall-E timeline.
>>28942466>literally takes commemorative picture of using truck for truck stufftry hard
>>28942517Maybe we take pick to fight with retards like you.
>>28942160I can fit a double pram in the back of my minivan without even folding it.
>>28942447>grilling fishso i wasn't the only one lol
>>28942160>Dude just stick your propane tanks out of the sunroof of your Honda Civic lmao
>>28942246This. I have a trailer in my back yard I tow with my comfy suv.
>>28942466i said 361 and not 364 for a reason, anon
>>28942664Using a truck for "something" every 3 months is still pathetic.What the actual fuck do you do with your life those other 361 days?
>>28942530All it took was reading "grilled fish" and now I'm the hungriest I've been in weeks. I love me some grilled or fried mystery fish. Oh, I can't handle the craving.Down here in the souf you can get fried fish at gas stations sometimes, sometimes with Cajun spices, so good.
>>28942520>See guys, I *need* a truck, y-you guys who call me a poser, l-look at this picture! I am a big truck boy!Yeah, not buying it.
>>28942160I've done both. I had a odyssey van I loaded from the front seats to the back three layers deep in mulch bags. Thing road so smooth. Latest time is pick related in my truck. Canopy means I can load it up even more in the back. Only a five foot bed. I had 32 bags in it. Paid for 30 but the loading guy and I suck at counting apparently.
>>28942160I could easily fit all this in my coupe without even folding the rear seats. Do truckniggers really?
>>28942160I can pay uhaul $50 for a trailer for a few hours and haul all the mulch I need on a little trailer. I don't need to carry an empty bed around for years just for that one or two times I use it every few years.Of course, if you do use your bed every week, every month, maybe even every quarter, then it makes sense. But otherwise it's stupid. Just rent a little trailer when you need it.
>>28942695You don't "get it" because you have a sedentary lifestyle.Its not about a load of mulch.Its not about a jet ski.Its not about a bloody deer carcass.Its about ALL of that.Its about being active and DOING THINGS on a constant basis.You didnt see a post about an 8 foot tall armoire for sale then go get it.You didnt get a call from your buddy about a downed tree in his driveway then go over and cut it up with your chainsaw and haul it off.You didnt load up your dirtbike and take it out to the trailhead on saturday unexpectedly just because there was a break in the weather.You spent the weekend downloading random shit from steam and watching podcasts about Magic: The Gathering.
>>28942672do things you think you need a truck for perfectly fine with my car
>>28942733You put dead deer in your trunk?Do you have 4wd, mud tires and clearance that can handle 10" deep ruts?How many 55 gallon drums have you loaded into your car at one time?
>>28942740I put two mates and three bikes in the back of my Volvo, which I then drive off to the trails, for which its offroad ability is more than sufficient. If I need to carry drums, I rent a truck. Or, better, a delivery. Did you know you can pay people to drive a truck for you?
>Buying mulch in bagsDo people really?
>>28942173Would right
>>28942374Odd how you had a receipt from 2 years ago handy.It's also interesting how the receipt studiously avoids all mention of what company the rental was from and what was rented. Purely coincidence I'm sure.
>>28942160I just pay the landscapers because I'd rather not do long term damage to my back
I actually only haul with my truck a few times a year but it ticked so many boxes for me I had to buy it.
>>28942726I know guys like you, I leave my trash out on the curb for them on garbage day.
>>28942792Sanitation is one of the main reasons people live to an average ripe old age of 70, what's your super important job?
>>28942744>Did you know you can pay people to drive a truck for you?do you also pay people to have sex with your wife for you lol
>>28942354this. those 75 minutes go by very fast, especially when you have to drive back home for 30 minutes cause you live in the boonies and spend time unloading.>>$1.75 per mile>>$69 for insuranceuhhh... are you in commifornia?Menards does:>Starting at $18.95 for first 75 minutes>$6.00 for each additional 15 minutes (rounded to next quarter hour)>A charge of $0.50 for each mile drivenI use my own insurance, my collision is $71 for 6 months. Fuck you paying $69 for a goddamn 75 minutes????
>Most people don't need a truck>OKAY BUT WHAT IF I AM ONE THOSW PEOPLE WHO DO NEED A TRUCK? WHAT THEN, HUH?
>>28942166>It’s a lease.Gross
A lot of posters live in an apartment and it shows. >I would just rent the truck>Just get it delivered>It's only once or twice a yearYou can't even comprehend the rural lifestyle. Some of us use our trucks on an at least weekly basis. Plus it's not always going to the store and buying things. Sometimes you're hauling around stuff on your own property. You're not going to drive all the way into town to rent a truck to drive back home to spend 15 minutes moving something and then drive all the way back to town to turn it in.
Imagine how much mulch this puppy hauls every week. Trannies must be SEETHING.
>>28942912>owns truck>doesnt make his own mulchshiggidy diggity
>>28942905rentoids want me to drive half an hour each way to home depot every other weekend to rent a truck so i can schlep my 4x4 to the trails and then wonder why i hate them.
>>28942914that little pile probably took you an hour. i know, i have a chipper about that size too. making your own mulch is a colossal waste of time.
>>28942160I live in an apartment so this doesnt apply to me. If I had the money for property that needs this, id be able to afford a car for pleasure and a car for work
>>28942916lol., lmao actuallyi cut down a shitton of branches a month ago and mulched them all this past weekend. I filled six 50 gallon leaf bags, that took me about an hour.my wife is working on a raised garden bed thats 20ft long. i easily saved $300 on mulch.this upcoming weekend I'll be taking my truck to the mushroom farm for some premium compost. $50 per cubic yard. two will do.
Why are truckfags itt incapable of realizing that there are two types of truckfags? Vanity niggers with shiny trucks shouldn't be driving around oversized 8000lb toys just because they want. The faggots actually using their trucks are a minority and they should get to keep those trucks. You don't even need draconian, overreaching regulation to stop this, just make it so you need a documented business reason and a different license to own anything over a certain size. Also, make it so all consumer trucks have to look like a 2004 Ford Ranger.
>>28942789I own a house on 40 acres because I dont give money away for labor I can do myself. Enjoy your 50 square feet of lawn and that HOA
>>28942160>truckold>buys mulch in bulk by the bagIt would be cheaper to get it delivered and dumped in your driveway at that point.
>>28942921>Why are truckfags itt incapable of realizing that there are two types of truckfags?For the exact same reason antitrockolds are too
>>28942921Its the basement dwelling nocarz that dont understand the difference between the two.But besides that...The same posters who seethe about trucks day after day also brag about their 0-60 and skidpad numbers.There is zero reason to have a street car that can hit 1.24Gs in a corner. Its a public road not your personal track.Accelerating from 0-60 in 3.2 seconds is illegal in all 50 states (exhibition of speed).A Miata and the Brodozer are two sides of the same coin.
>>28942929I just go get it with my dump trailer and roughly spread with skidsteer. I’m not shoveling mulch out of a truck bed like a Mexican.
>tiny bags of dirtwhat kind of basic bitch suburban shit is this?
>>28942939>miat>pulling a sub-4 0-60
>>28942962Dont be a retard.I didnt say the miata is hitting a 3.2.Theyre not pulling 1.24g either.I grouped miatas into a class of vehicle that has no business being on public roads.
>>28942973>We NEED more regulations!All must be same.
>>28942973>Dont be a retardno u. you stated that cars pulling "high" Gs and have very fast acceleration don't belong on the roads, like the pavement princesses previously mentioned. you then equated those to a miata as being both impractical choices to drive around with. it's the exact inference to make, as you literally used it as an example following the gripe about fast cars. so either you're baiting, dumb, or are so underage that you don't understand how to structure an argument I would actually say a miata is a perfectly valid sports car to have on the road, just like a single cab ranger (not the fat fucks they currently make) for the average truck enjoyer
>self-inflicted truggold humiliation threadMasochists
>>28942988>>28942973you're both retarded. he clearly mentioned two distinct groups of cars, one with high skidpad numbers and one with quick acceleration numbers, and used a miata as a representative of the former group. and also you faggits telling americans we need to regulate cars more to placate your low test rentcuck cock chugging brain should be walled off from the american invented built and funded internet since you clearly weren't built to be able to handle it.
>>28942988>I would actually say a miata is a perfectly valid sports car to have on the roadOf course YOU would, because youre a faggot.No "sports car" belongs on public streets- there are zero places where a sports car can legally or safely "outperform" a 4 cylinder Accord.
hewes me cawwying 1300 lb (600kg) in my e91just put an old bed covew so it doesnt get on the back of the seats
>>28943029i need to physically bully you. where do you live.
>>28943029Half the roads in my county aren't paved. You wouldnt make it within 3 miles of my property after a rain.BTW, I can put (18) 50 pound bags of feed in the trunk of my Camry I can also carry 10 foot 2x4s with the trunk closed (obviously not those 2 things at the same time).Why do I know this?Because im not wasting money on gas for something a shitbox can do and that Camry is disposable. My trucks are worth money. Ill throw miles at the Camry until it blows up then ill roll it into a ditch, light it on fire and walk away. Ill buy a replacement the next morning.But theres many things it cant do, thus the trucks.Mt. Fortuna in San Diego is 1,293 feet high.Its 18 miles from the Pacific Ocean.The M1 highway in the UK is 193 miles long and the highest point is an elevation of 289 feet (and it runs down the center of Britian). The Pacific Coast Highway has higher elevations at points that its only 100 yards inland.This is what many euros dont understand.Elevation and terrain.If your 4 banger saloon survives going up the grade with a 2 ton load youre going to die going down when you smoke the brakes.
>>28942243Based. Unless you've got a girl to fuck in the back, pickup trucks are extremely gay.
>>28942354Whatever it costs, if you only need a truck a few times a year, it's *way* cheaper than owning a truck.
>>28942939Miata is slow as fuck and would bounce off of the average sized American if you crashed into them.
>>28943143There are days during the rainy season where you cant leave my property without 4wd, mud tires and a foot of ground clearance.Trucks retain their value at higher rates and are able to handle failing infrastructure (pot holes, flooded streets) better without damage. Thus the final cost is cheaper than a "sports car".
>>28943163>rainy seasonWhat shithole are you posting from
>>28943163If you need a truck every day, ok. It makes sense then. But the vast majority of people with a privately owned half-ton or greater are just wasting money on these things. There is only one guy on my street I see using his truck enough for it to be worth it, for him. I wouldn't say he's wasting his money. But for every guy like that, there are 10 people using it as a suburban commuter. Most trucks on my street have never towed anything or have had anything in their beds.>people are free to waste their money!Ok, sure. But don't complain when you're poor as fuck because you're driving a top-trim halfton to go to work and the grocery store. Honda and Toyota commuters hold their value as well as a trugg.
>>28943163>Tfw went out drifting in a flood warning / tornado watch 2 days ago in my Miata on chink all season.I've got a half a mile from my garage to the road that's dirt and gravel. I run on 14's. It was completely flooded, didn't mean a damn thing to me.
I see gas prices aren't high enough
>>28943170>There is only one guy on my street I see using his truck enough for it to be worth itare you gonna cry?
>>28943190No, but I'm going to roll my eyes when these people bitch about the cost of living.
>>28943203roll your eyes through the tears?
If I need a truck I go to uhaul and pay $25 for the day.
>>28942354>Yeah bro ur actually retarded instead of financing some brodozer @8% bi weekly payments
>>28943170>people with a privately owned half-ton or greater are just wasting money on these thingsNo different than a BMW, Corvette, Challenger, WRX, etc etc etc
>>28943176Don't care, didnt ask.
>>28943124>Half the roads in my county aren't pavedWhy do you live in the 3rd world anon?
>>28942366As opposed to one that revolves around toy vehicles
>>28943221So you've never purchased a new vehicle..got it.You can buy an F150 for less than a Tesla Model 3 or any BMW (just to name a few for starters).A.Tesla Model S Plaid is more expensive than a fucking F150 Shelby Supersnake.The price difference between a Camry and F150 payments is like 30 bucks a month.
>>28943270Post a piece of mail with your zip code and we can compare crime statistics.

>>28942882You're not doing yourself any favours with that comparison lmao
>>28942905I live rurally and no. I get you like occupy yourself with lots of little larp activities and you need those things to feel like a man but not all of us need that.Avg weekend I just fuck with my car. And a I definitely don't go on 4chan to seethe and act out.
>>28942409This. If you're buying more than 2 or 3 bags and you own a truck, just go get a pile loaded into the bed at the local place.Also remember that 9/10 4chan posters are just eurofags. They hate the truck because they aren't allowed to have them.
>>28943163I'm glad we're getting to you this much, congolese anon
>>28943264Those cars are actually fun to drive though. Much more respectable than your gender affirming care vehicle.
Got an old 98 1500 w/t that works just fine for hauling stuff, was given that from my dad. Then I got a fun to drive car and a bike. Honestly if I was strapped on cash or if I had to choose between a car and truck, I'd probably just get a cheap truck and get a fun bike.
>>28943285>And a I definitely don't go on 4chan to seethe and act out.like you're doing now?
>>28942160we get it youre a 5.5", 200 lbs beaner who thinks driving a truck makes you manly
>>28943278>the insect is confused about the world outside of the hive.You made assumptions about the level of society and quality of life based on the road surface material.I simply challenged you to list actual statistics of your own home as a comparison.I guarantee the murder rate (which is a globally accepted metric) in my neighborhood is a fraction of yours.

>>28943367My local landfill has a section for organic matter (mostly downed trees and such the road crews clear).They make these compost piles that are 10 feet high and 200 feet long with watering systems and a special dozer thats turns it over. Talked to the guy that runs it once and he said they had a full grown cow they put in it and the cow returned to base elements in a week due to the heat and microbe activity.Last time I was there it was $22 to have the front loader drop a load in my gmt400 longbed that put it on the bumpstips.The equivelant of like $500 in bags from home depot.Oh.BTW.Some of you will fucking love this.Congress passed a bill a few years ago that declassified human waste.The purpose was for water reclaimation plants to take the "sediment" from their tanks and sell it as "potting soil".As an example- about 97% of the water used by Las Vegas casinos (sewage) is "filtered" and returned to Lake Mead (Hoover Dam). And yes. Thats a reaervoir on the Colorado River.(All the drugs people take thats pissed out and returned to the water supply is a thread for /pol/).But next time you buy a bag of "potting soil" from Lowes or home depot or ace hardware and when you open it up it just smells like shit....thats because you just paid for an actual bag of shit.
>>28943267Skill issue.
>>28943487>All the drugs people take thats pissed out and returned to the water supply is a thread for /pol//o/ is off topic for car guys.Antidepressants, antipsychotics, hormones and their metabolites pissed out by average people, is a huge source of pollution that is causing extinctions.

>>28943511I live in a swamp. I have forest for miles around, all the trees in this pic are mine. I even have a lake with bass, entirely on my property. When it rains everything is flooded, hence the raised gravel.I have land further than the eye can see in 3 directions, I have 3 chicken coops and tons of trails across the property. I have a Jeep, too, but I almost never drive it.
>>28943514I grew up in one of the top 10 largest cities in the U.S. so im not some hillbilly hick....Fresh manure from a cow farm smells (like poop) but isnt repulsive. Because (at worst) it was corn fed poop or (best) was grass fed free-range poop.Very "earthy" and natural smell either way.>what goes in = what comes outHuman diet is everything you can imagine.So think of dead grass rotting in a field vs everytbing you ate in the last month piled up and rotting in your driveway.Do you want to dig around in that field or your driveway?
>>28943518>can you buy one for less than the couple hundred dollars it costs to rent one on the occasions I need it?I've bought pickups for less than $1000 many times. Hell I've had them given to me for free.

It was "one owner, 50k miles, only driven to church on sundays" kind of shit (had a shit load of options, including the still present dealer undecoating). The other was a project truck and the guy was deploying and his wife said "oh hell no, that thing isnt sitting in the yard for a year while youre in Iraq". I bought it for a 351w swap and also used a shitload of other stuff like the 6" Rough Country lift (I fucking hate Rough Country lifts).>that was 20 years ago gramps.OKI just picked up a '68 F100 from Copart (fuck those guys) winning bid of $825 turned into to $1420 with their fees.Was advertised as "runs & drives".Carb was pissing fuel.$40 rebuild kit and 20 minutes later I was driving it around town.Im still under $2k with the windshield (fuck that was a nightmare to install) and other miscellaneous bits it needed. Buddy just bought a GMT800 extra cab short bed with a low mileage 350 swap from a suburban for $900.Killed the transmission a month later but $250 for a rebuild kit and another $150 for a 3/4 shell and some other minor bits and its good for another 150k miles easy.So whats your mentality here?You think "A Truck" means you have to go down to the dealer and buy a Ram 1500 Hemi 4x4 Crew Cab Short Bed Lone Star Edition"?>I have one of those also BTWSome people drag a '95 Ranger out of a forest for 200 bucks then rebuild it over the course of a decade just to build a Baja 500 prerunner because all they've driven for 35 years is fullsizes and a mini truck on 32s looks like fun>thats also meI post in these threads because I have both.>2 sides of the same coin.If you dont "get it" then youre not a true enthusiast.

>>28943593That's my house. I'm in the room in that pic right now.I have a silverado too, I get yards of sand then yards of gravel and shovel them out. I made that driveway. I even made some of that fence.
>>28943560>just spend 2 grand on a truck and hours wrenching on it instead of $20-40 for a rental to schlep some bags of mulch home from home depot
>>28943593Also, the part you pointed out as asphalt, is gravel.
>>28943587>Any exiting tales to give?Extremely light. Was on a cloverleaf onramp one night and a broken sprinkler head doused the road. I was driving in a "spirited" manner because I knew the car and ramp and didnt see the water until I was 20 feet from it.>fidget spinner dot exeBuddy swears it was 5+ rotations Wound up facing the wrong way with an oncoming car (they stopped and let me do a 3 point).At the time I was thinking 2.5 spins but looking back it was probably just 1.5.Didnt hit the guardrail, no damage.>it might have actually been 5+Absolute bitch to get parts for (even in the 90s).Chick's absolutely fucking loved it. That car got more pussy than me but luckily once they were in it they had to fuck something and that would be me.Thank God I lived in San Diego where rain never mattered because there was no top for it. If there was "a storm" forecast id just throw a tarp on in with some magnets. If it happened to get wet it didnt matter because- San Diego - it dried out 20 minutes later.Sold it because maintenance was just too much for a DD.I still have my Chiltons manual somewhere- I juat saw it.
>>28943600Weird....The guy talking shit about "being able to do everything with a miata"...Has a ...Fullsize Chevy Pickup parked next to the miata....
>>28943614Instead of going off points you made, I'm just going to say: based.That sounds like what I expected, sportscars like to spin but they sometimes give you an opportunity to avoid a real crash and turn it into just a spinout (oh no! lol).The parts availability is what turns me off, and it's never getting better. 9/10 cool cars.
>>28943619I never said I could do anything with a miata, you're assuming other anons were me. I did say miatas can offroad at the range that most people actually "offroad," which is true. Keep your speed - this is the rule of driving in mud. All the other shit is for when you get stuck. And I have a Silverado with 900+tq, a manual pentastar wrangler, a range rover, a gator, a golf cart, and 2 tractors if I get stuck (which I don't, but I often have to pull out others that live here).
>>28943578You clearly have some kind of mental disability. You outright stated you did not see the appeal of a sports car
>>28942160>Dude you don't NEED need?
>>28943622Im old.Ill throw you a bonus...Thats not the only time I"ve spun.And (God willing ) ill do it again.>wait, what?!The TR flipped around like a flyswatter.Fox body mustang is a wet towel.An F100 is like a Louisville Slugger.The Ram redneck DUI mobile is like a bag of concrete.M978 HEMTT is the tornado scene from The Wizard of Oz.
>>28943625>outright stated you did not see the appeal of a sports carLink where I said that.
>>28943635>>28943435
>>28943633I appreciate the bonus because those silly phrases actually translate to vehicle dynamics in my mind.But that's the only time you've spun? That's kinda sad.
>>28943640>But that's the only time you've spun?You sweet summer child.>look it upTexas tried to charge me $2k and suspend my license (they couldnt) for a tree in the median that I spun out and hit because of (see previous for the irony) broken sprinkler with mustang.It took 2 tow trucks to pull my car off that tree.Tow truck driver was like "well its $110 if you get your car out of the yard tomorrow or for $250 I can drop it wherever you want".Ya fuck impound- Im 2 blocks away, ill hit the ATM before you get there.It's funny because I go to visit 20 years later and drive down that road and its >"tree, tree no tree, tree, tree, tree"Ya.I did that.
>>28943667And yes.Same mustang mentioned earlier.Was not 592hp at that time.Although I've had multiple mustangs before and since- upto S197
>>28943667I learned to drift by pushing limits, wisely. Early on it was guaranteed I'd fuck up half the time. I have spun out, so, fucking many times. That's how you learn. I picked places with lots of asphalt or grass runoff.I've been doing this shit since I got my first RWD in '08. The only times I needed a tow was when my clutch slave cylinder went out. I've never hit a single thing drifting, and I do powerslides on my way to work. Pick your corners to your skill level. Once I had a radiator blow from busted thermostat but I have a car trailer.
>>28942160There's nothing wrong with owning a truck per-se. It's just that modern day pickup trucks are overpriced bullshit for what they are, and needlessly large for very little gain in the bed size.
>>28942160You can fit all that in a trailer.When you need to haul shit, hook up the trailer. When you don't, you can have a fairly small and economic car.If you're a tradie and need the truck all the time, sure, have a truck, but a lot of people buy far more car than they need 99% of the time.
>>28942160i have a 4wd Hiace, it can fit 3 times more bags than your metrosexual mallcrawler.
>>28942781>xer doesn't save the receiptsYour accountant must love you
>>28942240hapens to ys al
Ford Maverick
>>28942914better be upgrading to a tractor and chipper unless you are in da burbs
>>28943124>You wouldnt make it within 3 miles of my property after a rain.get a dozer and fix your shit then
>>28942726I agree with your point but you sound like a faggot who also doesn't do any of these things.
>>28943850im happy with my roto. i found it in a barn salesat unused for 25 years. started up well, needed a carb rebuilt. works great now.when i'll outgrow it, i'll get a bearcat.what I do need is a 27ton log splitter
>>28942354>You've never rented one.Oh right, you got me. It was a cargo van instead because I needed to move an aquarium and a smoker.
>>28943143I used to think that way too, anon.Renting a truck everytime you see a yard sale, or need to pickup some plywood from Home Depot is very inconvenient, and expensive.I was looking to buy a beater truck just for that purpose, occasionally picking up stuff.Unfortunately nothing here under $8k was viable.I ended up buying a new used truck for $32k instead. It is now my daily. No, I do not give a fuck about gas prices.I used this truck only yesterday to pickup a new Speed Queen washer and dryer, and on my way home I ran into a yard sale with a buy selling a broken Jogn Deere 125 riding mower for $100, its mine now and once fixed, I will flip it.Yes. renting is still cheaper, but its so much more inconvenient.
