  My Family: Toyota Corolla and Ford F250 Diesel (pics)


Well fellow NicoNauts, Here are some pictures of the 2 newest members of my family:

Ford F250 Superduty with a 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel engine and 253,000 miles. Got an excellent deal on it and ended up putting 3K into it recently.

Pics:

And here are some pictures of the 2009 Toyota Corolla with the Sport package:


I picked up the truck last month from my brother in law who was going to trade it in. He gave it to me for the price the dealer was going to give him for it which was $3800. It was just too good of a deal to pass up so i did it. I put the wheels on yesterday and tinted it about an hour ago. I put an Edge 5 stage performance chip on it as well as an intake, and a FASS (Fuel Air Separation System) system. She runs like a champ and hasn't given me much trouble for 250,000 miles.

The Corolla is the economy car. It gets 35 MPG on the highway and has OK power (nothing compared to the Ford ). The Corolla was only 20K out the door so we did a 3 year loan at 0% interest. The payment is $500 per month.

Sorry about the long post, I guess I'm just bored. Enjoy

The Diesel is great. . . especially when someone is following too close for comfort. Just kick the chip up to 100 HP and their car disappears in a black substance

It works great!

Book value on the truck is $10,000 which is why I couldn't understand why he would want to go give it to a dealer for 3,500.

^ Thanks!

Me and my buddy both have Ford Diesels and of course if you have a Ford you have to have a reliable Toyota to fall back on

I'm not sure I understand buying a brand new economy car, unless you have no cash and are willing to endure payments just to have something to drive (its how Cobalts and G5s get sold). It is inherently uneconomical to purchase one new because of depreciation and the environmental impact of manufacturing. A used truck and a used Corolla would have been more advantageous.

I mean, its a Corolla. Whether its old or new, its still a dependable bore that offers great fuel economy and a quiet ride. So save your earnings and buy an old one. If you're going to take out a loan and make a sizable payment, it ought to be for something more enjoyable.

This is how Henry David Thoreau would have approached the problem:
If you work 25 hours a month to pay for your car, and another 5 hours for full insurance coverage, is it really worth it? Almost an entire work week so you can drive a Corolla.

Over the course of three years, thats 1000 hours of your time devoted to working for that car.

The reason for the corolla is because we are travel azzloads of miles. In the first 2 weeks we had 2000 miles on it. The Corolla depreciates so little that it is almost stupid to not buy a new one. When it comes to selling the car we will still have equity in it.

I know that buying a new economy car defeats the purpose of economy, but when it is a Toyota it all becomes worth it when you go to sell it.

The 25 hours a month thing all depends on how much you get paid, and if you job means alot of driving you have to have a car to drive

I got an Edge Juice with Attitude. I would probably prefer a Duramax over a Stroker but the Stroker is a good engine.

Soot pictures coming soon


Yes, it is a 4WD with a manual transmission. . . since the hubs are covered by the hub caps it's gotta be fun next time I want to use 4WD. . . oh well, I guess I'll just have to stay on the road

You didn't eat your broccoli. and you didn't get in line with all the other kids. you never really cared about where you sat at the lunch table or which clique you were in then or what club you are in now you knew that the best way to live was by doing what you wanted not just what you were told. soon everyone else began to notice. you wanted to go your own way. and you did.
