    NeW vEhIcLe!

    Ok, so here is the plan. Currently I own a 2004 Dodge SRT-4 that im still payin off. My roomate wants to buy it and I told him to jsut take over payments (owe more then its worth). I was lookin around and just want something cheap like a small truck. Still want "some" coolness to it I was actually looking to buy a 2000-2001 dodge dakota R/T club cab. Ive foudn some pretty cool ones and thats the type of truck I want...small, lowered a bit, big endine. Was reading and their only 250hp and 364fl/lbs stock so its decent. They are runnin in the area of $7000.00 so not too bad, and you probably could chew some of that down a bit. so bout 2 grand cash and 5 from the bank will get this. Whats your guys view opinions of this truck if any? I also want to buy a bike so that is why im going with this instead of an 04 Ford lightning

    So I figure ill have a bike and a truck to haul my food for the week. Any other decent cars/trucks in this price range????

    Im always amazed how people are willing to put there credit on the line by letting someone else just take over the payments. Definetly the stupidist idea ever

    dont buy an r/t. they're horrid on gas. I had a 2001 dakota quad cab and the thing gave me nothing but problems. you have a better vehicle right now.

    Yeah I know, my dad had a dakota club cab with the 4.7 and he had it for 100,000 miles before he basically gave it to me. I lvoed it but wanted a car so off it went! Never had problems with it tho. I know they are gas guzzlers too Oh and I would sign the title over to my buddy so it would be clean and clear of my hands. It would be in his hands then.

    does it have to be daimler-chrysler? I like GM and Ford myself. I owe a Chevy Colorado and its a good truck.

    Id say go with the 2008 3.7L colorado z71 4x4 LS but thats just my opinion. Reg, Ext, or Crew cab options. I like extended cab cause reg and ext have 6 ft bed but crew cab only has 5ft bed. ext and crew have same wheel base tho

    Also if gas mileage is big concern and you want to save $3k at the buy, chevy/gmc now make 4x2 z71s.
