    New Truck Blues

    I just bought a new truck to day. Chevy 2008 2500 LT with a extended cab with a 8" fisher plow. But here the deal. I can totaly afford it I got a great trade. I always go through this like a down time like I don't deserve something new. I allway feel nervous after the purchase. Allmost like a depression but not that deep. Anyone else go through this????????

    Any time I make a big purchase I tend to second guess myself, I think to some extent it's human nature. Sounds like a nice truck.

    It's called buyer's remorse. You'll get over it. You always do don't you?

    I need to buy a new truck too. Haven't had a car payment in over 10 years.

    I think I'm afraid of buyers remorse myself.

    Btw, nice rig.

    thats one of the most f*cked up stories i've heard......those crooks owned u .....on your truck, check out the plastic piece that runs on the top of the front bumper, and the larger black or "pueblo gold" piece on the rear......they probably came from my plant...

    3bd nailed it, buyers remorse. Anytime you make a big purchase, its natural to second guess. You'll get over it soon enough and realize your truck is the shit!

    Webb, I think I would kill someone if that happened to me. I hate thieves!

    That sucks. I learned the hard way. Don't leave anything visible anymore in my care
