    hmm transam or kingranch

    Im having a hard time making a descion by myself. Either one will be an uprgrade from my v6 mustang. Im 18 and my parents pay for gas and insurance so neither one of those are a factor.
    1998 transam ws6 blk ttops 6spd 78,000 miles
    awseome car...fast loud attracts girls
    2002 King Ranch F150 4x4 6inch lift pretty much BALD 35" tires...leather still really nice condition 4 bucket seats...looks great
    super cool truck...lifted...attracts girls...buuut 130,000 miles ouch
    pretty much same price for both
    sooo any opinions

    Damn you're lucky to have your parents pay for insurance and gas....are they also buying the vehicle? It really shouldn't be a choice. The T/a looks great and has half the miles.

    Dang, I hope you realize how good you have it right now. I've been on my own for the last 2 years. Finally at the point where I could afford my bird...

    So your choices are a decent mileage 6spd T/A and a high mileage Ford? And we can only assume from those tires as to how that truck was treated in the last few months.

    Im actually paying for the car...Ive worked since I was 16 and saved about 95% of my money...very grateful for my parents payin for gas and insurance otherwise I would never be able to even have this choice. I test drove the ws6 tonight and it was absolutly amazing. haha so much power in every gear. the ride home in my mustang made me feel like i was driving a tractor. Im going to make an offer on the car tommrow and see how it goes...really hope it works out

    Get the TA and you can always slowly build a nice truck out of a beater truck in the future as a project. Anyway, how could you resist the 6-speed??? I was addicted as soon as I test drove one!

    Yup, I really am 19. The jeep is the winter/DD and the Vette is the weekend driver. The T/A has been off the road for a year and a half now. Thank you for the compliment. Hopefully you get your T/A soon. They are a fun ride.
