I'm buying pic related today for $600. AC doesn't work and has a cracked windshield but it runs and shifts great. Anyone else find a running vehicle for less than $1000 recently?
Ok pick if you're a pretty girl.
>>29056279I don't understand why people who buy SUVs or crossovers even come here. They're dead inside.
>>29056324Owninig any RWD vehicle makes you more of an enthusiast than some cuck with a FWD.
>>29056343Not really. Rwd only has value when it's in a CAR not some cuck suv or crossover shitbox.
>>29056363Wrong. You can drift any RWD vehicle which infinitely more fun than driving a FWD.
>>29056279post it nigger
>>29056321Pretty girls drive VWs where I live.>>29056324I have 3 other cars, I'm buying this simply because it's so cheap. >>29056343Correct. >>29056363Crossovers are FWD based and unibody, you can still do fun stuff in a RWD SUV.
>>29056371Wrong. The nuance between fwd and rwd is hard for most people to determine in a fucking CAR. If you think some gay crossover or suv shitbox is going to stir anyones emotions because it's rwd you're just wrong. If I could choose between exterminating all fwds or exterminating all crossovers and suvs I'd exterminate the crossovers and suvs at least then I'd be able to see what's ahead of me in traffic.
>>29056371Inb4 crossover becomes a rollover
>>29056373I'm waiting for the guy to bring it over, I'll post it later today.
>>29056382you sound like a eurofaggot. europe is inherently anti car enthusiast.
>>29056324sorry i know we should be LARPing as racers and posting cars we don't have as is /o/ culture
>>29056374>I have 3 other cars, I'm buying this simply because it's so cheap.If you're not flipping it for a profit, buying something you don't need because it's "cheap" is nothing but an expense.>See sign for "Free dirt.">get it trucked into your front yard>Eventually get tired of having a pile of dirt in your front yard. Pay to have the dirt hauled away.How good a deal was that pile of dirt?
>>29056595What does dirt have to do with a car? You can't drive dirt.
>>29056611A cuck u vee isn't worth driving.
>>29056279Where I live you won't find even a dead car for scraps at that price. >>29056324I have pic related and still come here once or twice a week. 67hp on this bad boy.There's nothing wrong with owning a "boring" car, even as a car enthusiast.
>>29056595>If you're not flipping it for a profit, buying something you don't need because it's "cheap" is nothing but an expense.Variety is the spice of life Anon. The 3 cars I have already feel vastly different from each other. I also have already have plans for it.>How good a deal was that pile of dirt?I'm not paying to have this delivered or hauled away, and it's something that will be used. That's a terrible analogy. >>29056639The 2nd gen Xterra is built on a shortened Titan ladder frame. It's not a FWD based unibody CUV. >>29056640At least you have a car unlike some of the crabs in the bucket around here.
>>29056677>built on a shortened Titan ladder frameHow many tons of free dirt are you planning of hauling?
>>29056279I bought 09 Escape for 800 that lasted two years. Too much rust underneath. Would've taken like four or five thousand to fix.
>>29056373>>29056473
>>29056721
>>29056279Yeah I find cars for 100-500 dollars all day long, last 3 cars I’ve bought were 100 dollars, my daily driver diesel Jetta was free, I get free cars all the time too
2.5td or petrol v6?
>>29056791It's the gallon 2.4
>>29056279>$600plus $5000 in parts n labor to pass inspection
>>29056824Why would it need to pass an inspection? Oh yeah you probably live in one of "those places".
>>29056836where can you register a vehicle without an inspection?
>>29056847Anywhere in the free world???
>>29056850where?
>>29056856The US and Canada?
>>29056824There's no inspections here other than a VIN check if you buy out of state.
>>29056866>>>29056856>The US and Canada?inspection required.baby's first car?
>>29056873I only need an inspection if I want full coverage on a vehicle older than 15 years. There is no inspection required for basic insurance and registration on a vehicle here. I've owned several $500 shitboxes. Feels nice having the freedom to do so. Maybe some day you'll experience that.
>>29056873
>>29056880which state?also that's retarded. the last thing i'd want is to get rekt by a poorfag in a $600 shitbox that's unfit for the road
>mfw watching my neighbor gift my cousin a 30 grand perfectly fine truck because they got sick of trying to fix some small electrical error>they both own two houses and are retired>im struggling to just pay rentboomers, i swear to god
>>29056897buy the truck from them if it's a simple fixinstead of complaining do something
>>29056721i know this driveway. can you please spend 5 bucks on some glyphosphate and get your shitway resealed? you can do it yourself it's not hard.
>>29056895>wanting to pay jews a fee to have some nigger hit a check box on a paper for no reason
>>29056900oh right sorry, next time ill use my telepathy to find out this transaction from a few months ago, that i just found out about last week happened. golly my misteak.
>>29056918uhhh u used the term 'watching' which implies you saw the events unfold as it happened.now ur using the correct term 'finding out' which means you've discovered thing happened afterwards>>29056916isreal is an ally and only childless freaks think inspections are bad
>>29056928>isreal is an allybased fellow MAGAISRAEL FIRST AND ONLYyou lost tranny!MAGAawooooooooo
>>29056928yeah, i did say that. heres the funny thing: cars dont just teleport places because you said to someone "you can have it for free". cars ESPECIALLY dont teleport places magically if you say to someone they can have it for free, if its got an electrical problem that stops it from starting.they said they could have to car months ago. i watched it arrive on a trailer last week. i did indeed, watch my cousin get gifted a 30 grand truck for free. these events unfolded before my very eyes.
>>29056928>pissrael is an allyany credit you had before is gone in it's entirety
>>29056721aw yeah you get to do the headlight polish
>>29056279>>29056371>Wrong. You can drift any RWD vehicle which infinitely more fun than driving a FWD.If you think the main reason why Rear-Wheel Drive is superior to Front-Wheel Drive is because you can drift in rear wheel drive then you fundamentally do not understand why RWD is better.
>>29056721>>29056812noice, looks traight af
>>29057016It's not just being able to drift or do a burnout. The steering always feels better on a RWD vehicle. I can't stand the steering pull you feel from a FWD or an AWD.
>>29056900>instead of complaining do something
>>29056901>i know this driveway.L/o/cal? >>29056960I could, but it's not a concern as of now.>>29057035Thanks, it's a little crusty on the tail gate but for how cheap it was I can't complain.
>>29056371Nobody is drifting an Xterra you fucking windowlicker.
>>29056371>>29057754The only drifting I'm doing in this thing is when there's snow on the ground. It's an open diff with some gay ALBS fake LSD.
>>29056725looks very neglected and unmolested, check & replace fluids asap
>>29058444The oil is a little dirty but the trans fluid is surprisingly clean for the under hood condition.
>>29056279My brother got tired of dealing with his Hyundai (he is a car normie, waits for his car to break and goes to a independent shop for most work) and was about to take $500 on trade in at a local dealer. I stepped in and buy it and now ive got a $500 beater. Add in another $750 or so for mounts, axles, calipers and brakes and ive got a nice shitbox. It leaks copious amounts of oil and im not going to fix that because it has 210k miles. 3.3 v6 has great midrange and low end torque, though, and my usual level of mechanical sympathy is diminished since I paid so little for it so im having fun driving like a nigger everywhere. Costs me $20 per 6 months to insure.
>>29060345keep going, replace power steering and brake fluids, coolant too if you don't know it's fresh. Rear diff, front and transfer case if it's 4wd, that xterra could last you decades.The power steering reservoir is soaked, either the cap's not on all the way or it's got a leak so I'd start there. The battery needs some love too, pull it out and neutralize underneath with baking soda water. I'm kind of jealous of all those projects, I just finished doing all that stuff on my 4runner, washed the engine bay and everything.
>>29060349Got any pics of what kind of condition it's in? >>29060414>The battery needs some love too, pull it out and neutralize underneath with baking soda water.Already did that. I didn't get a pre cleaning corrosion pic, but there was a lot of buildup. And yeah I noticed the crud on the PS reservoir. But you can tell from the pic on there it's old and dry and there's no spots from leaks underneath so I don't think it's an active leak and it does have fluid in it. I also thought it was weird it was on the cap and fuse box cover so I wonder if it was spillage or the cap being left off/not sealed properly previously. It's a 2WD S trim base model.
>>29060349you should put an xboxhueg spoiler on it
>>29060940This is the first pic ive taken of itThe bumper and fenders are a different color, most of the door handles have been replaced because they're cheap shit and snap, and it pisses oil out of a few seals.Functionally everything works. Ac, heat, cruise, power adjustments, radio, no fault lights. Mechanically its in really good shape other than the bad mounts, CV, stuck caliper and possibly a bad ball joint. It'll all be fixed. The plugs had about 60k when they came out and looked perfectly worn. If the transmission doesnt shit itself I think this is a 300k mile capable car. >>29060977Im tempted to do something stupid with it but I also like having inconspicuous cars that dont attract too much attention
>>29061083That's not bad at all for $500.
>>29061331I literally cant say no to a vehicle that runs and drives under its own power for $500, not in this economy
>>29056725Head gasket is fucked I promise
>>29061332Same, that's why I grabbed that Xterra.>>29061508There's no milkshake on the dipstick or in the cooling system. There's also 0 smoke from the exhaust. So no.
>>29056324Bof tards get a pass for muh offroad
Looks dope. Great find OP
>>29056881Even the nebraska safety inspection is just a quick look at the vin. They don't do shit.
