A new chapter begins and a new home for the Morehouse/fcc orphans

So what pick up did you get ?

 

I have one. It’s been a great truck. Mine is a v6. Not a power house, but it’s sufficient and get decent fuel economy

 

I have something rather...older

 

I also have something rather newer. Much less interesting though. 2020 Toyota Camry

 

It’s 306 hp but it’s not impressive with a horse trailer or a tractor behind it. But scooting around town it’s great and it rides good. If you really go easy on it I have averaged 25. But the the wife drives it and the avg is back down to 20

 

I bought my Chevy pickup for $4500. 96 K2500 with 350 V8. Extended cab, 8' bed. I've put about 2k into it between a bunch of fluid changes and suspension work. Only one spot of rust on the passengers side. No regrets. I'd rather pay $6500 for an older truck and repairs vs $65000 for something that will probably fall apart in 10 years. I plan on keeping mine completely stock.

Only real issue with this 350 Vortec is when the fuel injectors need addressed, it's a rather expensive job. Because the whole intake has to come off to access it. And obviously when you put it back together you're not going to reuse all the old crap

and don't ask me about gas mileage in that thing

 

I drove some pretty rough vehicles for many years. Now can afford whatever I want and able to just write a check. Got this a couple years ago.
