here's the lowdown....i have too many vehicles and i'm sick of my life being evolved around fixing/modding/spending money on machines. I just want to drive a vehicle 12 months of the year without having to ponder what mods i'll do next or what i can do to improve the handling or performance. I have my supra, my bike, and my escort. Obviously the escort for the winter and the other 2 for summer fun.
Now, in 1 month i'm selling the bike and the escort to buy a truck to fulfill my needs as a daily driver. HOWEVER if i buy a truck i'll have to park my supra for 4 years due to insurance issues. I don't want to continue switching from escort to supra every 6 months because frankly it's annoying, and my supra isn't the best daily driver. It isn't comfortable, it is a PIG on gas and most of all i don't feel very confident driving it everyday especially since it's 20 years old.
I bought my supra as my first ever car back when i was 16. I don't think i'm ever going to sell it so i think if i buy a truck, this downtime will give me the opportunity to really restore it to PRISTINE condition. I won't feel pressured because i will have 4 years to finish it!! now, if something breaks i'm stressing it because i need to use my car everyday.
So should i do that, OR should i just sell it and be done with cars for a while?? part of me wants to keep it, and part of me wants to sell it and just move on. I like the simplicity of just having one truck, as it really appeals to me right now. I know my car doesn't have as much done to it as some of the big dawgs here, but every car holds its own amount of sentimental value to their owners......
