Well after being plagued with car problems this month I decided to bite the bullet and get some new wheels.
Managed to find a truck (something I've never had before) for sale up the street by a private owner- saved a lot compared to buying it from a sleezy car lot. Scored it for $3800.
It does need some work (mostly cosmetic) but nothing I won't be able to buff out.
Didn't have time to resize the pics so I've linked them (they are rather large):

Another look:
New ride 001
It also needs a front grill, bumper, turn signals, alternator, battery, starter, water pump, radiator, hoses, spark plugs, steering column, shocks, brakes, oil pan, rear suspension, transmission, ignition, and one of the rear taillights is out. Tires are OK!
Of course I'll have to get it towed to the shop- but I've got CAA (our version of AAA), so it should only cost $50 bucks.
Yes I'm kidding.
You can get up off the floor Scott.
This has been parked in a mall parking lot near my house for two weeks now- thought I'd have some fun with it.

"I know I'm human. And if you were all these things, then you'd just attack me right now, so some of you are still human. This thing doesn't want to show itself, it wants to hide inside an imitation. If it takes us over, then it has no more enemies, nobody left to kill it. And then it's won."
