What's a practical car repair you should know if you drive a jalopy?

Should I get a 2nd car for college?

  • So currently I drive a 1990 F150. I've had it almost fully restored so its a great runner. Thing is, restored and all, I don't know if I'd be comfortable having a 21 yr old truck with 196k miles 4 hrs from home. Its also expensive for gas to use daily. Plus it's hard to drive in a city environment. I have AAA so I could get a jump or tow if needed but still..... don't want to get stuck with a 2 grand repair bill when I need wheels 4 hrs from home. I was thinking about getting a cheap second car to use for college. Something that can get dinged up but reliable. However, I don't know if this is practical. The truck has a lot of sentimental value and I'd be taking a huge hit selling it since I have so much $ in it to gamble with an newer old car. What should I do? Should I get another car cheap or just try to make a bus work/ get rides from friends

  • Answer:

    I would sell the truck and get something cheap but reliable because any car you get cheap wont be reliable and if you want you can get some extra stuff with it like rims and/or a body kit if you are into that stuff

If your F150 has been looked after, it should last. You have already put the money into it , so you should drive it and enjoy it. You can get stuck with a large repair bill with any car or truck, so I would say go with the one you know. Another car is always more of a gamble.

i dont know bout your situation if you live in the la area i have a friend who sells cars cheap. i bought a car from him from him for $1600. i love that car. [email protected]
