Don’t worry. Even if he doesn’t get voted into the main calendar, I can get him into the action calendar under the heading of “Rapidly Oxidizing”.
The sad thing is that so many people will only put the minimum into them. Often times, a vehicle is the most expensive thing a person will buy next to a house. Granted, vehicles don’t usually appreciate value like a house does but it’s a heck of a lot cheaper to maintain an existing vehicle than going out a buying a new one every so many years. Barring an accident that totals a vehicle, taking care of one will give you decades of service. Heck, the last two vehicles I sold because they no longer met my needs, are still on the road and making their current owners happy. Not bad for vehicles that are 21 (1999 Honda CR-V) and 22 years old (1998 Ford Ranger).
See also mine... I should have ran.
Yours has been a favorite of mine since I joined trs, the one thing I didnt care for about it youve since fixed. (auto trans to manual) Mine could use a engine update as well.
Start a new thread for that. It could be a long oneLet's discuss trucks we should have run away screaming from...
It was that way with the 1998. If I had known how poorly maintained the truck was, I would have never bought it. I now know never to buy from that guy again. We are great friends but preventative maintenance is not his MO. He’s one of those guys that would tell you “It’s been a good vehicle. I’ve never had to do anything to it other than change the oil.” And when he says that, he means it. If it wasn’t broke to the point he couldn’t drive it, it wasn’t fixed.
There is still time. It will be ok.
I trust the cats opinion.
