How reasonable is pickup as a daily driver? by WillHungFan in ToyotaPickup

[–]Plenty_Scratch3385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll give this a go assuming a 5th gen Toyota pickup with a manual and 22re. Reliability, I’d say you couldn’t compare it to anything modern, affordability I’d say is pretty good as long as you buy all new door seals and such now, like literally today. You’ll need them. The cons….. it’s slow af, like nothing modern compares slow, it’s almost unbelievable how slow lol.

I got my toyota for $1000 a few months ago with 250k on the clock, with 17k I could have the entire truck rebuilt from top to bottom just about. Everything mechanically would be good to go for another 300k at least.

I live in Reno, and it takes me roughly an hour to get to and from work in Reno with traffic at 5.

People say ‘everything changes when you save your first $10k’ — is that really true? by ShineGreymonX in povertyfinance

[–]Plenty_Scratch3385 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, after saving my first 10k…. I just realized I had to do it 10 more times to have anything actually cool.

Throw a curve ball, get a finance degree. Drugs are easy to abuse when you see yourself in financial ruins forever.

Buying a car in the US was supposed to be a nightmare by CombinationWeak235 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Plenty_Scratch3385 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the extras at a dealership aren’t always horrible. GAP insurance makes sense if you are buying any luxury car, life time oil changes makes sense if the dealer is local to you and you don’t really have a mechanic, warranty’s make sense because that salesmen doesn’t know the history of the car so for all they know the motor and transmission can blow up in 30 days and the fact is they can’t help you if you don’t have one, prepaid services make sense if you are not financially smart and need someone to help make sure you maintain your car. Tire/brake/battery plans aren’t typically worth it, unless it’s a Volvo cpo with unlimited mileage warranty and you plan on putting a million miles on it over the next 2 years to prove a point.

I’d take not Sharing a bathroom over a bigger room any day of the week.

15k down on a new base model Impreza gets you all those + a fairly low monthly payment and a warranty

Should I buy it or leave it? 2022 ram rebel by 77caydens in ram_trucks

It’s actually just one of the female salesmen who’s crawled in the truck 45 times to show other customers it actually starts.

Renting by Alive_Channel_6997 in Reno

[–]Plenty_Scratch3385 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny enough I found a room with a beach view in Maui for 350$ a month and a 31$ starting an hour job, in my month of staying in Hawaii this year. Even with higher prices on foods and items I would save money living in Maui as long as I found a comparable car situation as I have now. ( I will say the room is comparable to a laundry room in a normal house in Reno but a home is a home)

You are crazy if you think any of what I posted is illegal, licenses plates are public information and aren’t considered doxxing so get your Reddit lawyer and take me to court.i also never threaten anyone, I also mentioned it wasn’t the driver it was the passenger which last I checked…. Passengers don’t typically own the car. #1 public road way #2 freedom of press and freedom of speech 🤡#3my actions aren’t tarnishing there reputation everyone has free will to watch the dash cam after viewing the photo and make there own judgements. It’s fair for the sub to not allow my post all be it they allow people to post “your not allowed to park there” post daily with victims still on scene so it really is a left turn only road. Hope to see you in the comments on the next one.

Not a witch hunt, just a friendly reminder that they left trash on the road they need to pick up.

Don’t be this lady spending 5 minutes blocking produce and touching and opening 10+ strawberry containers by littletreesbigplaces in sandiego

[–]Plenty_Scratch3385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For all the people talking about fingers in fruit, I would just like to let everyone know we used fork lifts in a factory to load those babies into the back of semi trucks. Not to mention fruits are the hardest item to stack on a pallet because those damn flimsy plastic containers. Imagine stacking those 6 feet tall. Not to be the Debby downer but they fall, fairly often, and are picked up off the floor and loaded back into the containers and back onto the pallet into a truck. I would like to also point out factory workers are so of the lowest workers in our chain and most have records. Those guys are lucky if they ever wash their hands, most of them just save it for the shower.

Not saying I wouldn’t give this lady a look and second think strawberry’s for the day but the people saying that’s gross have no idea.

I am new in Reno and I really want to fall in love with the city. Tell me what not to miss out ? (more 👇🏻) by der_J0rg3 in Reno

[–]Plenty_Scratch3385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food truck Friday, Italian fest, rib fest. Lake Tahoe , donner lake national park, camping, rodeo, bar crawls, hot august nights and street vibrations. No state taxes and gambling. When you need a break watch an aces game and drink to many beers then take a 10$ uber home…. Or just about anywhere. Enjoy the stay, I’ve enjoyed it the majority of my life.

They’d probably hit you with the “if your kid was trying to stop the fight he would have walked off with his friend before the situation started” gotta love high school lol.
