NOOOO! Your kidding right? Wow I always have thought your truck was beautiful. If so then you did the right thing man and you can make that truck nice too. Its good to know where your priorities are and that when its comes down to it providing for your family is more important.

what the...!?!?

Dude, I feel bad, but at the same time understand where youre coming from. I had to make decisions like this in the past. i just consider myself beyond lucky to have an income right now. Who knows, next month I could be getting rid of my truck too (i dont even want to think about that, but it could happen)

I understand why you had to do it. I'm glad you chose your family over the truck, really shows where your heart is.

Nice deal man, If someone offered to buy my ranger from me, I'd sell it in a heartbeat. Once you get a house, it's all I want to fix up... I could care less what vehicle I drive as long as it's a truck so I can make trips to Lowes :)
