Hundred car pile-up on I-55 in Illinois because some farmer decided he refused to have trees lining his field, didn't care that it was dry and super windy, and then basically made a dust storm all over the highway that turned into the highway of death.

things are going great.

Nobody should own a truck but renting a truck should be insanely cheap and easy. This is probably also true if cars but hard to imagine how you pull that off.

Home Depot rents pick ups for pretty cheap. It should be cheaper but after insurance and gas and such for like an hour, which was all we needed it for, it was like 50 bucks.

This is the semi-regular recommendation made to people in the "recommend me a car" thread in AI who are contemplating buying a truck as a DD because they need to move a couple sheets of plywood every other month. Maybe regional differences, but even $50 is high in my experience.

Also Home Depot (or whatever big box store you rent it from) does not give a single gently caress if you're buying anything at the time. You can rent the truck, go get whatever oversized poo poo you're buying on Facebook Marketplace, and return the truck with zero issue.

savesthedayrocks posted:

During the pandemic I decided to buy another project since I had all this free time, but I'm moving states so time to go.

Year: 1992
Make: Honda
Model: Acty
Color: Blue
Odometer: 74499 Kilometers
Location: Boise, Idaho
Price: Sold locally

I imported this Acty through JapanCarDirect in 2021, and has been titled in Idaho ever since. I've had a blast with this truck, it's super simple to do maintenance on with access to the engine on all sides. Parts are easy to get, and there is a small aftermarket presence. Truck starts up perfectly, and is on a battery tender when not in use. If you are in a place with snow - this is hilariously fun to bomb around in with the full time all wheel drive. There's a manual adjustment you can make under the truck if 2wd is more your thing, but I've not messed with it.

This was a work truck in Japan, so it is far from a show car. The door panels have seen some sun, and there is a tear in the driver's seat. I bought a cheap stereo to replace the factory radio, but the harness doesn't make a great connection so it currently doesn't output sound. When I plug the OEM radio back in though there is static so I know the speaker works. Has the factory floor mat in great condition, I also added a LED flare for that JDM touch. I'll even throw in the Japanese Red Bull can that came inside the glove box!

Happy to answer any questions!

Yeah that's about it. I do enough hauling around that a smaller truck (like a Taco) would be nice, but am eyeing up a 4Runner for ease of transporting family and dog on trips.

Now if Toyota would hurry the gently caress up and announce hybrid versions of both, I can figure how which organ I need to sell.
