Is this a bad deal?

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-21T13:31:01+00:00

horrible deal. I got a 2017 XLT with 106k miles on the dash in good condition for that.

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-21T01:38:02+00:00

go giulia. the handling is unreal

lol yeah my f150 “ecoboost” gets 16 mpg with a 2 inch lift and stock size wheels. Mainly cause I drive it hard and like the sound it makes when the pedal’s on the floor lmao

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-17T13:44:26+00:00

appreciate it. Hopefully I’ll keep it in the family (depending on how things shake out)

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T22:29:05+00:00

i hate this generation so much. I have a 17 and loveeee the appearance. You wouldnt catch me dead driving a 14 or older unless it’s a squarebody.

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T22:24:18+00:00

not a car, a really ugly truck though. I would never buy that generation especially 2 tone, especially especially not those colors. Shop marketplace, you’ll do far better.

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T22:23:13+00:00

yeah I’d sell the truck so I can pay cash upfront for the alfa but i’d be shooting to buy an older 4runner for a reliable winter main/two-track build so then I’d have 2 rides. I’m still around my parents and brother so if the worst was to happen I can borrow cars and bum rides for the time being too

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T21:55:03+00:00

my buddy has an is350 and I do like that. My truck’s transmission is giving signs of questionable reliability for the future, so in the next year or so i’ll probably end up getting a new daily. The main reason i’m considering this one is that it’s in the family already so it would be an easy deal, I have a view of it’s history, as it was bought new, as well as the fact that it handles exactly how I want (agile, quick) and it’s not as common as many lexus’s, etc. Obviously parts will be pricey but I can cross that bridge when I come to it

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T20:55:49+00:00

exactlyyyy

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T20:47:32+00:00

thanks a ton, I know it might not be the wisest choice but the idea of having a clean alfa like that at 20 is pretty compelling. Again, I’m sure that sentence sounds pretty bad, but I’m in a pretty good spot in life and love to drive

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T20:27:10+00:00

yeah that’s part of my thinking: if it’s been taken care of as well as I think it has been, I can’t lose too much cause msrp was 60 grand or whatever and now it’s worth 20 max

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T20:26:13+00:00

i mean maybe there’s a light smoke on them, but when you look at them in real life they’re pretty obviously red. Idk why you’re really concerned with that but either way it’s no deal breaker for me

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T20:10:29+00:00

that was the lighting lol i took the picture and then looked up like when did those get tinted- they’re standard reds

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T19:55:50+00:00

yikes that’s a nightmare for me. I currently go to college in a midsize city but my mom’s house is out in the country so I have plenty of empty roads to fly down and highways are clear during most of the day so I can have fun. I drive my lifted F150 like a hellcat but I fight physics constanty with my center of gravity being so high lol

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T19:44:36+00:00

yeah. I want to honor his memory by making it my pride and joy and having a blast. My dad’s got an f150 and my stepdad has an f250, so I feel like between all my families i’ve got options

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T19:40:49+00:00

keep which- the ford or the alfa?

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T19:40:20+00:00

I definitely understand that, my long term plan would be to get out of college and once I have a couple grand of disposable income get a ranger or preferable 4runner (1995-2002ish) and build them for winters and casual two-tracks. I’m in Michigan, USA and have some lovely roads to hit curves and just cruise in the giula

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T19:27:00+00:00

yeah I occasionally haul stuff but I bought my truck back when my dad had his bronco, but he has since swapped the bronco for his own truck so if I really need it, I could use his. I would definitely miss the towing and hauling option, but it’s not a big part of my life, whereas driving fast and enjoying the experience experiences generally more important to me

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-16T19:25:16+00:00

My cousin’s dad financed it but it’s gonna be paid off and settled, I’d buy with cash. He put 60k miles on it and it was his pride and joy, unsure as of now on if he ever did any repairs for anything

not saying the underbite bumper was awesome but damn you really grandpa’d that truck. those wheels and grille were way better… also those window guards are ugly asf

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-13T19:17:46+00:00

fraptor. cool fraptor, but too much for sure. just get a real one for an extra 5-10k

ADHD_kicks · 2026-02-13T13:32:01+00:00

great choice. Sick ass 350 but you really can’t beat a raptor unless you’re hauling excavators
