Do white girls really drop their panties over a pickup truck?

If you’re from some shitty town then yes literally you just have to larp the whole lifestyle

I don't understand, are these people flaunting that they made a lot of debt for a car?

I am 34 years old and have never even attempted to get a drivers license or drive a car

I'm 32, while i have a license and drive for about 4 hours once a month, i have never owned a vehicle.

>>51171926
Pickups are actually useful if you're not a LARPer
If you do any sort of work that requires tools and materials, even just frequent DIY home improvement weekend warrior stuff, you're gonna want a pickup, but these guys look like desk jockeys

>>51171926
payment? i paid once and now i own it

>>51172452
Every time I go to the grocery store I see 80% pickups and SUVs with one driver hauling nothing running in to buy one thing. These idiots are why gas needs to be a lot more expensive.

>>51171969
Yes, though a shitty wrangler works just as well and works on all white women

>>51172017
I'm 32 and have my license and no car.

A car is literally pointless to own in a big city .

lol wrongo

no woman gives a single fuck about your ride other than gold diggers googling the MSRP of your compensation wagon.

pickup trucks are meme vehicles at the moment. no clue why theyre popping off. i have a 2002 ranger and ive hauled and towed more shit than most these overpriced luxury armageddon-machine-themed grocery-store-trip pickup owners ever will.

not my problem.

I remember there was this one time I borrowed my uncles truck for a week, it was one of those big king sized trucks. Driving anywhere you just feel like you're the king, you can barely see the small cars sometimes and every other similar sized truck that passes you feels like a brother in arms. The closest I've ever been to feeling like the biggest man in the room, like yeah if shit went down I could easily plow through multiple of you no problem.

I'm 28 years old and my gf is forcing me to learn to drive. I'm terrified of driving ever since I got in a car accident and got brain damage from when I was a kid. Does anyone know how long it takes to learn to drive? I want to get this over with.

>>51171926
>ay boi!!! I said aayyy boi!!! I may have 1 inch rock hard dick, but at least you gotta step up a ladder to get into muh truck!!!

Typical pol-tard retardation here, I said feel like the 'biggest' man in the room. Learn to read, I know it's not your strong suit but you can improve with some practice. But yeah nothing we can do about our biology we're born with.

Owning a car is for retards.

This isn't the 50s anymore. Freedom is illusory.

>>51175770
I bought my car for $2k, haven't taken it to a mechanic because I haven't had any trouble I couldnt fix yet, it has 240hp and a massive trunk
Seems worth it to me for so little money

>>51171926
For some people it's a matter of utility, in rural areas it can be a genuine asset to have a proper truck.
That said, if you're officecucking you probably don't need one.

>>51179093
Especially farmers who need strong diesel trucks... what sucks about it you have posers who just pretend they are in that life style; kind of like niggers wearing timberland work boots.

>>51178567
i used to do hard manly work in a factory. many of my coworkers were retards with $600/mo diesel truck payments on $18/hour income. then i realized how shit this work and this life is, and now i make six figures a year wfh. cope and seethe, dumbass.

>>51179135
I run a multimillion dollar government contracting/OEM shop. I use my busted up Dodge to get secondhand machine tools so I can pocket the difference between the estimates for costs I give to Uncle Sam and the actual price. And you're the one paying for it with your taxes

composted manure is like less than two bucks per thirty lb bag. composting is fun for a project for the kids, but no normal person is composting enough material to make a signfiicant difference. i could compost my banana peels and coffee grounds for a year or two, or spend thirty bucks and till up my whole backyard

>>51179030
> really have no idea about the world around you besides these fucking weird argumentative aces-in-the-hole.
Uh it's not a weird ace in the hole, it's called life
Funny how you're the one coming off as ignorant, not everyone does work that can be done with a $20 home depot drill in their 150 square meter flat because not everyone is an urbanite Europoor

>>51179488
Bro 97% of the pickups on the road right now are being driven by people to commute or get groceries. Your actual use case is not the norm. Shut the fuck up faggot.

>>51171926
You’re supposed to use those trucks for work, hence the high price, not drive 5 miles to the office every day in it

>>51179807
You don't need to haul shit every day to need the utility of a truck. There's been many a time in the two years I needed a pickup truck and just had to borrow a friend's. It's a good thing to have even if you don't use it every day.

>>51179807
97% of /biz/raelis are fuckups that can't even manage to do something as simple as get a license and purchase and maintain a motor vehicle
Seriously this anti-vehicle sentiment always comes up, which is so weird considering the obsession with lambos. Like, do you faggots think they'll drive themselves?

>>51180402
Bro I make six figures and WFH. EVERYONE does. I bought my used Dodge Ram 2500 for $10k in cash outright, because it's not a lot of money to have lying around for me these days.
I'm not saying people buying 2022 F350s as grocery getters aren't stupid, this literally all started because I said "a truck is useful" and you all reacted like a fat activist being introduced to vegetables

a car can be useful, but i got to admit with the amount i drive I could get by with rentals and bus rides. In fact I prefer travel by train, since I can ride it doing nothing. I dont live in a city.
However I still keep my 10 yo compact car in case people start getting desperate with this inflation and all.

Far more than some gay euro Porsche yes.

Got a 1998 GMC sonoma handed to me by my parents when i was about 21 or so. They paid 700$ for it.

I'm now 31 making 95k$ yearly, and i have not even had the slightest inkling of upgrading this thing or getting another vehicle. I put like a couple thousand miles on it since my last oil change two years ago. Hauls anything i need it to and the pay by the mile insurance i have is cheap. Big trucks are a meme unless you can write it off as a business expense. It's all identity.

>>51182669

Life is never going to get better. You are just adding more bullshit to your girlfriend's life.
People are wreckless drivers now a days. There is nothing you can do to stop that.
All you can do is focus on you.
Drive as safe as you can.
Limit distraction.
Follow the speed limit as close as possible.
Just focus on the road.
It will be hard, but it will get better.

>>51171962
it may be a tiny percentage but honestly, pickups were supposed to be owned by people who worked the land and actually needed them. They are extremely useful and I'm fucking sick of lefties pretending I must have a tiny dick or something when I'm driving one.

>>51171969
>Drop em ladies

poor people use credit to buy cars

use cash

>>51184317
Wrong. Most dealership don't make that much money off of the sale of their cars. Instead they add a bunch of negotiable fees that they remove in the final stages of financing.
Best thing to do is come in with an approved limit a credit union. Don't tell the dealer anything and instead wait till you are in the signing room with their financing member.
Agree on what you are willing to pay their, then slap the financing check on the table.
If you do that with cash, they are likely to refuse.

>Leasing
>For a Porsche
Shitskin behavior. Just get the money to buy the fucking thing.

>>51184456
eh kinda and kinda not true they make a lot of their money off of POs, and whole-sales they drastically mark the price up on. i remember we sold a mazda that was 7k for 38k

>>51171926
This is why eurofags stay poor, at the end of his car payments he owns the truck, I know that's a difficult concept for you to wrap your head around, but essentially the truck will still be his to use for 20+ years AND he gets to stop paying for it (crazy right?) If his job requires a truck, and based on how dumb this dude looks it probably does, he will have saved a lot of money by owning it instead of leasing it forever

>>51171969
yeah they do

>>51172452
>>51171926
a lot of these luxury truck buyers dont use their beds for anything. i bought a 2005 911 and my payment is 770 i cant imagine being fat and stupid enough to spend more on a truck than i would a porsche 911 (its perfection on wheels)

mazda 2018 grand touring with 3k miles for 20k usd all cash 3 years ago

it only has 33k mile on it now lmao

best financial decision of my life this thing is going to last forever and is such a comfy awesome car

>>51184456
walk in with $15k in your pocket and go through the whole process to see how cheap they can go, then tell them you can pay in cash if they can do it any better - it'll be better, and you won't have credit on a depreciating asset like a retard

>>51171969
No. It's one of those things that other guys think is cool but girls don't actually care about.
You will get more pussy having an Australian accent than you will having a Ford Raptor or whatever.
If you want to waste your money on something to impress a girl go drop $300k on a boat, pay $5k/year to a marina, and then another $5k on gas, and then whatever you spend on booze and whatever else.
It's literally cheaper to just fuck hookers and they will definitely fuck you, while sober, instead of going on a boat to take pics for IG and then maybe if they're blackout you can hit it and get a rape charge the next day.

>>51173967
>>51172452
I get the point but I'm not opposed to having a single cab Tacoma or something similar. I feel like most the time you don't really need a truck but when you actually do it's nice to have. It's also nice to just throw something in a truck bed and not worry about anything else
>inb4 just use a tarp

>>51184685
Euros literally drive around in 3 cylinder hatchbacks that cost like $20k brand new. None of the people in OP are going to have their car until they're paid off. The reason their payments are so high is because they roll over the balance into the new car.
Go watch an episode of Dave Ramsey sometime these people not only exist they are incredibly common.
The average CONSOOMER gets one promotion and suddenly thinks they deserve to drive the latest and greatest.
These people are the definition of debt slaves.

>>51171969
pickup trucks are popular in rural areas. In cities people like sportscars.

Having a pickup truck in college was super helpful since I had to move all the time. It also sucked because everyone else was moving all the time and wanted to borrow my truck.

You need a truck if you are a man, I'm not joking - it has significantly improved my quality of life and made things cheaper for me. I bought my truck for $2700 on the side of the road from a nice old man who bought me breakfast, gave it a tune-up, and now it runs like it's new. I use it to haul things to the dump, help people out, move things, etc. The only thing I don't like is paying out the ass for fuel.

>>51172017

works if you're in a big city i guess, where i'm from we have froads and you have to cross highways to get to the main part of the city, so you pretty much have to have a car.

USA's urban planning is actually going to be a serious issue, everything is so spread out and requires so much gasoline, if gas gets too high there will be big problems
