Sincity_blondie Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Ok so check it out. Ive listed the BURB for sale on a few websites. Im going to be looking for a truck, hopefully diesel. So I can use all the help I can get. Im not looking for brand new, cant afford it. looking for something maybe about 20-25 range. So help a girl out! Any suggestions? Quote
sand chick Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 GO DODGE!! my truck!! No problems hauling, drives nice, fit six people the other night fairly comfortable. The other bonus its bigger then Bob's Quote
wingnut Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 A Ram with a Cummins...Just not blue please!!! Quote
offroadracer Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 I dont think your gonna find a duramax around that price range. ..so it would leave you with dodge or ford Quote
offroadracer Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Dont take the smileys serious...I think all 3 have qualities Quote
EY3BA11 Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 If you get a older ford stay 7.3 if you go with dodge cummins is the only way to go.. You might be able to find 02 03 duramax's in that range but be prepared for high mileage not that its a bad thing but alot of people wont finance high mileage vehichles regardless of the motor or truck.

EY3BA11 Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 There are alot of good deals to be found on dodges... Just be forewarned it aint gonna ride like your burb.. so if your used to a cushy ride you wont have that anymore... Quote
indasand Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 We had good luck w/ carmax for my wifes used car. But check out a broker before dealing with a car lot. You can get what you want if they can find it for you.(no salesmen) There's a place on Decatur and Russell just down from PT's that's where I got my silverado. Quote
JoeDuner Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 If you buy used, private party is the only way to go........NO SALES TAX!!!! Quote
Sincity_blondie Posted June 18, 2007 Author Posted June 18, 2007 If you buy used, private party is the only way to go........NO SALES TAX!!!! Well since im not to mechanically inclined, ive always been a little scared to buy private party. And even private party, there should be sales tax?? isnt there?? Just gotta pay it at the DMV instead of the dealer. But keep in mind, sales tax is a write off on taxes now. Quote

Or when im not towing over potisi. Not sure what to do. Quote
