I honestly do want a hood truck, I'm working toward a w9. Thought the w9 I want has a 280" wheelbase. I figure I'll get used to it.

Why aren't truckers in the driver's seat?

I think long nose trucks are most of the time nice looking trucks. The first one I was in was massive and felt like I was climbing on a horse. Id need some extra steps to climb into one.

Wish I was 5'7. I wouldn't have to climb in the truck like toddler.

One problem most people have in our so called modern society is that most are not willing to save for what they want. They would rather put themselves in debt rather than wait until they saved enough to pay cash. If you can't afford to pay cash then you can't afford to buy it. I was glad to see Kmart advertising that they now have layaway. That is how most people paid for Christmas when I grew up, if it was for items that they didn't have the cash. You pay something down to hold the item and then so much a week or month until the product is paid for and only then can you take it home. There are no bills. It is sort of like you charged it except that you usually don't pay any interest and don't get the product until it is completely paid for. No bills. No high credit card interest.
Nearly everyone can live on less than we think. There many things that we consider necessities that we don't really need. Children don't need their own cell phone. We managed to get along just fine using a regular phone or walking over to our friends to have a really conversation. Internet or cable are not necessities. We did OK with antenna TV and knew nothing about the internet or computers. Besides who really needs or wants 500 TV channels? Saving today will pay dividends ten fold in the future. If you have heavy debt then you are a slave to your creditors. If you become a saver rather than a spender you will get along much better than those who think that they must be in debt and have everything that they want right now. When the economy takes a nose dive a saver can survive while a spender may need to file bankruptcy.Licensed to kill, tl385, southerndude and 1 other person Thank this. -

lol . Well at least you stick to the contrarian thing . -
Not to be too picky as well but....
I think G/Man hit it right on the head. All of these extra things that people take for granted today, are really that. EXTRA and are not really necessary. In fact... not really beneficial.tl385, chalupa and volvodriver01 Thank this.
