Got me a new ride!!!!!

rlowride · 04-23-2003, 01:43 AM

I am so happy... kinda......
thought i was gunna be the new mayor of truck ville....
Well, heres the story... my trans went out in my 96 Deville..... took it and had it looked at.. it was gonna cost me close to 3 thousand to fix it...... i had 1000 saved,,, but that wasnt enough....
So i tried to trade it in at the lac dealer for a 97... they wanted 14k for that, and only wanted to give me 3 for mine, even if i payed to fix the trans!!!!!!!!1
so i went truck shopping......
Was ready for a dodge, they worked it out,,, said it was mine.. but had to wait til tomorrow for all the financing....
So we went to the GMC dealer... he hooked it up right there on the spot,,, got me to what i thought was a fair price on a standard cab pic up, and thru in a cd changer!...so now i have a 2003 GMC sierra 1500 longbed! With 33 miles on it! and a 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty!.
I reset the codes in the caddy.. the air was gettin bad in it.. it was loosing alot more oil, and the trans thing.. so i may be paying 500 a month, but damn, it is a worry free 500..... free towing, free rental car......
im all set..... i would have been paying that much to keep the caddy cause i would have to have taken out loans to fix it!
I may ppost pics tomorrow!!!

you kept the wheels of the caddy though right??

DRLOWZ · 04-23-2003, 09:54 PM

Yea lets see it....and 500 for how long, what was the finacing, give details homie and congrats on the new ride!!!!

rlowride · 04-24-2003, 01:12 AM

cadillac gone... wheels gone... fuck it all, i needed to dump that car in a quick way!.
i think i got a fair deal.. i put 1000 down....
got only 3500 for my caddy....... and ended up only financing 24,000.....

I owed 9200 on the caddy......
so i got the truck for only around 18,000.
i bought the extended warranty...
7 years, 100,000 miles bumper to bumper...... the only thing that isnt covered is wear items.. tires, belt, brake pads...... etc...
551 a month for 6 years.. so as long as im paying on it, it is under warranty... unless i drive over 100,000 miles...
