    Yeah man, honestly for my situation, it's the absolute best car I could have bought!

    I just got a full time job at my Guard base's fire department, and I live an hour and a half away, so it saves me so much money. I get about 2 trips back and forth out of it and filling up (with how low gas prices are around here, around 1.80ish per gallon), it doesn't even take $20 to fill up!

    takes me about 25 bucks to fill up, got about a 11-12g tank. I can get an entire week and a half maybe to get to and from work on 1 full tank of gas, i live about 25 min away 20 miles ish so. most of my driving is highway driving

    Since my base is an hour and a half away from where I live with my parents, I needed something good on gas. I average about 36-38 mpg in this thing. No, I don’t work everyday. My Fire Department is 24/48 (I work 24 hours, then I’m off for 48 hours).

    Just installed some subs and an amp into her a few days ago. Two 12in MTX Terminators and a 500w Rocksford Fosgate amp.

    i average between 35-40 MPG in my 2012 Hyundai Veloster, but then again i baby the hell out of it. 

     

     

    I'm also in the process of looking for a 88' Fox Body, with a 5.0 i can work with, boss is looking for a car to take to car shows and represent the company. Should be a fun little project.

    just get a k5 blazer and throw a crate engine in that bitch

     

    What kind of painter are you?

    Do you need an air compressor?

    What i would like to carry with me, but can't. 

     

    Step Ladders, 4 foot - 8 foot

    Tool boxes for things like tape measures, screw drivers, the basic shit, but then i need shit like blue tape, plastic wrap to wrap furniture with, if needed, stir sticks, like a thousand plastic buckets to put paint in, like a thousand different paint brushes, from Chinese Bristle Brushs, to Nylon and Polyester brushes, ranging from half a inch to 4 inches, then staining brushes.

     

    Then roller and roller polls, roller trays, liner for thos trays, Cleaning materials.

     

    Drop clothes is a big issue at the moment, all the drops we have in the trailer im working from now are all torn up, they got holes in em.  

     

     

    Now things material wise, paint, paint thinner, cawck, glaze, deglosser, shit like that is already provided, but we tend to run out of something and wont get more for another week. because my boss makes trips to the store on the weekend to kind of restock i guess you can say. 

     

    Paint rollers, and brushes, and scrapers, tools n shit we got to have our own, i been borrowing my co workers tools for weeks, which their fine with, cuz i give them back at the end of the day, but yes i would like my own.

     

     

     

    Yes im really over looking it, but i would like to have anything i need to do something at any given time.

     

    EDIT: and Sand Paper is another big issue. He likes to provide us with it, but we needed 50 grit and thicker, and we dident have any.... and since he does not shop till the weekend, we are stuck using 120 grit on shit that we need 50 grit for.

    added shit

    Im in Wisconsin so if anyone finds something on craigslist or something. I been looking for a bit. 

     

     

    @Don Juan A Ford E150-E350/Customline would be a little too big, and the gas would prolly cost my entire paycheck. I looked at my dads 89 chevy g20 van, its kind of the same but its in terrible condition. Thanks for the suggestion tho.

    If 10k is your budget, I'd look into a truck with a cab on the back. Or a truck without, and find a cab for it.

    My dad has a buddy thats selling a 2000 Ford Ranger, my boss has 2 rangers that he uses for snow removal, and is trying to sell them. Anyways, the one im looking at has been sitting in a garage for 10 years, and before then it was only used during the summer/fall/spring. It's in really good condition, yet to find a price on it. but ill def want to find a cab for it. If im using it during winter which i will need to. 

     

     

     

    I also saw a 1998 Chevy Trailblazer sitting out in someones yard, a thousand bucks for it..... 

     

    Now idk about buying cars, but a car for a thousand bucks, i see that aint really worth it. I haven't looked at it yet, i might tomorrow if i go past it.

    What the actual fuck is wrong with you lol.

     

    Always check under the fucking hood, check for leakages, check for rust, check for damages. Don't trust people.

     

    @trigger.exe as for your car, consider buying manual they are pretty cheap in NA.

    i already know to check everything, i was about to take my dads 1982 Chevy G20 van, till my step dad looked at it. I did not look at it thinking it was going to be fine motor/tranny wise and it running, but frame wise, neh. so yeah one hard left or right turn in that rusty bucket of bolts it might split in half cuz of rust.

    I know this is wayyyy too early but it's something i got to think about. Here is what the situation is.

     

    If you don't know, i work as a painter. As of this very moment i do not have a car to use to get to and from work. My mom drives me in the morning, and she usually picks me up after depending on what shes doing for work. Here's why i don't have a car.

     

    My older brother is 21 years old, no job, no school, been done with school for 5 years now. He has done absolutely nothing with his life. I leave for work usually at 6:30-6:45 am, somewhere around there. He needs the car to drop my sister off at school at 8 because shes a spoiled little brat, so if she says she does not want to take the bus, she won't. 

     

    I carry my water jug, my lunch box, and my 5 gallon bucket that has all of my five-in-ones, paint brushes, scrapers.... ect.... I want to carry more, like extra paint buckets to put paint in, mine is currently sitting in the trailer atm with paint getting all dried up n shit in it. 

     

    My parents have already agreed to pay 50% of my first car, and ill pay the other half. I need tips on what to get for this type of thing. Something that's not too big, but yet again something not too small, because i want to be able to carry ladders, platforms, and other big things. so maybe a small pick up? idk. Any suggestions?

    The monitors are un-level because of the mount on the back of my AOC, also if the right monitor was any lower I wouldn't be able to reach the power button on the monitor since the speaker is there.

     

    I like the way my setup is, but your criticism is valid

     

    my desk is brand new, 73-inch sit-stand from Ikea. however, I can't bring it to college because it's too big

    ok idk about anyone else but the monitors being un-leveled in bugging the shit outta me. Maybe move the PC to the floor off to the right, move the speaker over, and level it out. If not, GET A BIGGER DESK.
