80s chevrolet/gmc with a small block is really the way to go IMO. They just keep going and parts are so damn cheap and interchangeable.

Something Big... And Old... And Heavy... With a small engine.

Just remember... You most likely WILL wreck it. Those little dodge trucks are made by Mitsubishi (If I remember correct) and are pretty good little trucks.

you just got a $400 bike, no need for a vehicle for a few more years..... if you wanted to date you should have gotten a bicycle built for 2.......
