Hi everybody, hows it going? I am Ryan and I have been wandering through this site for a couple years now and figured it was finally time to join. I have been a gearhead since day one, and nineteen years later am still talking about cars. I am actually car-less right now, so if anyone has any recommendations, Id love to hear them (less than 10 grand on the price though, I am a starving college student)

Welcome to the forum Ryan, you opened a 5 page can-o-worms with asking what you should get....lol

vette12 · 18 Feb 2008, 04:56 pm

welcome... your goin to hear a thousand recommendations... my advice. save your money, buy a cheap beater to get you around, until you get what YOU really want, not what everyone else thinks you should get. But hey, thats what I think, and i just told you not to listen to us.

anyway, enjoy your stay.

For the truck people:

This is what I used to roll around in.

1991 Toyota, 5 spd, 4wd, 3 in body lift, 33s, two owner 85,000 miles when I sold him.

And first gen talons/eclipse are difficult to find in decent shape...
