I'm 17 and bought my first vehicle (truck) about 6 months ago. It's a 1998 Chevy Silverado, and I absolutely love it, it runs amazing and looks good too.
A family friend sold me a 08’ F-150 V8 with 75,000 miles for $3,000. He didn’t want it anymore and didn’t feel like talking with the dealership people.
Jesus Christ Saves no matter what. He is real all the evidence is there. Put your Faith In Jesus Christ. God Bless everyone reading this and everyone you know.
My first truck was a cateye V8. It was definitely a nice truck and had around 250K miles and still ran amazingly but the rust got to it so I had to get rid of it as it was costly to fix the rusted parts. Get one without rust and you’re golden!
Good list. My first truck was the Toyota t100. Tundras were still to expensive back then. Still have the truck 10 years later and she’s still running strong even tho she doesn’t get ran as much anymore
Got my first truck almost 2 years ago when I was 19, 2001 ram with the 5.9 magnum, only payed $1500 for it and still going strong even when I lost a fight with a metal pole, those magnums are bulletproof and you can find them a lot cheaper than the 3rd gens with the hemis something that'll be more in the price range
2nd gens are really easy to find I'm kind of leaning towards one but I know they have some issues. I need something with a decent chassis (and dash 🤣).
Same mines a 01 with the 5.2 and it has 210,000 miles with original transmission, engine and rear end. The transmission however needs to be serviced on time for it to last.
I’m just a 15 year old over here with a 48 year old truck (73 Chevy c10 4wd) love that thing. I’m keeping it stock since I don’t want to kill it, but yeah
I’m 17 with a first gen tundra and honestly I wasn’t expecting to see it on this list so I was quite surprised. But it’s a great truck and 33s fit under there just fine with a little persuasion
I’m 17 I had a small 2wd dodge dokota for a year while I was saving money sold it and managed to get a 2012 Chevy Silverado with 100,000 miles on it and I couldn’t be happier
I had different cars through high-school, I got a job in a regular fast food place and bought my first trail blazer, it was really cool, leveled, all terrain tires, then got a job in construction and got a 2004 f150, really nice too, and in senior year and to prom night I showed up in a 2008 Silverado lifted, 33s on 20x12, bed cover, color match front end, tow mirrors. I had a great memories from high school!
Man, when I started driving those trucks were either brand new or hadn’t come out yet. I wouldn’t trade my 77 dodge truck for anything for a first truck. 440 4 barrel edelbrock carb. 4 on the floor. They just don’t make them simple any more.
I was blessed to have my parents help me out when I was 16 and I was able to get a new 2015 Tacoma and I could never thank them enough for that and I want to do the same for my kids. I’ve that the truck for over 5 years now and put 100k miles on it with no problems at all. Now I’m 21 and I’m looking to buy a 2020 ram 2500 Cummins all by myself
I am almost 17. I bought a 1997 ford f250 hd when i was 15. I put dana 60s front and rear. 35x12.50x16s on it with a lift. Build a cab gaurd and resurected a lund lighted visor. It is a crewcab shortbox. It is super clean. It has a 460 and a 5 speed transmission. Perfect first pickup.

My first vehicle was an '03 GMC Sierra with the 5.3l that I bought a couple years ago, and last month I bought a '94 Bronco. I'm a wee freshly turned 18 year old lad, trying to learn my way tinkering with the Bronco as a project
My first truck, that I just got is a 89' Ford Ranger, 7 inch lift, big boy tires, off road suspension, rust, dents, black rims, hard-to-close passenger door. I call him Lil' monsta
I have a 2001 silverado single cab with a 6in lift on 33s and 20 with the 5.3 , it is very reliable plus it nearly has 300,000 miles on it and I haven’t had any problems what so ever other than just simple wear and tear from running biggers tires ... i would recommend the round body silverados to anyone who likes them and is looking for their first truck , also the price for my entire setup (lift , wheels , tires) was barley over 2 grand . Very reliable and inexpensive for nice modifications
Im a ford guy that dailys a 2013 z71 silverado. My first truck was a 1998 v6 rwd dodge dakota. My dad bought it for me cheap. Didnt have a/c or heat. Humble little work truck. And i loved it. Gotta start somewhere. Taught me a lot of humility and how to fix things. Always gonna love that little bucket
Ahhhh my first truck. 07 lbz. Got it a week after turning 16 drive it 1k miles blew a head gasket wasted 4 injectors n it cost me about 4K for me to do it. Shop wanted around 6-8k pushing 490hp n prop 800ish ft lbs of torque
I agree but damn,they $5,000 with no engine or blown engine whether it's a 4x4 or not..a good decent rust free one is $10 to $15 grand...same for 80s n 90s Broncos...and dont even get me started on Tacoma 4x4 prices...or like an 85 yota,last year of the straight axles..i sold mine due to hard times for $2,800.00 by far dumbest shit I ever did... Y'all hava good one!! 'MERICA
I never really leave a comment but I gotta say the 88-98 gm trucks are a solid first truck to buy. It’s my current starter and even though I’m pretty young they are really easy to work on and great if you’re on a budget cuz if you need a part there’s a 9/10 chance there’s a dude on fb marketplace parting one out. Love the videos and hope you guys show some light on these iconic American trucks. Might not have the luxuries of today’s trucks but they got the job done
Not saying it is within everybody’s budget however I think a obs 7.3 (NOT the 4door long bed) is a good first vehicle. A bigger truck makes you think about your clearances, isn’t super jumpy on the gas or brake, and it’s size can be a reassuring feeling because you know your not just going to be squashed easily by a reckless driver. I got my truck for none of those reasons lol I got it because it’s been my dream truck since the 3rd grade haha
i’m 15 and been working my ass off, bought me a 3rd gen 2006 5.7L cummins, 2005 7.3L powerstroke, a 2006 chevy s10 and now working on buying a 2008 or so chevy silverado 1500. Lol, i guess i’ll only be a truck guy and not a car guy for a while haha.
My dad's 2000 Silverado has ran over 300,000 miles. It has NOTHING in the engine but he put a 3 inch lift kit, a leveling kit, racing differential, a C7 Z06 5-speed automatic transmission, and a 38 in tires on it. She's a beauty
I have a 4th gen ram and absolutely love the truck! I don’t have the Hemi engine but the 287 ci magnum V8 does just fine, already did some mods to it and I’m gonna lift it pretty soon.
Diego Duckworth Lol heck yeah buddy, I inherited a 99 Toyota Camry then to a 99 f150 then a 08 dodge 1500 and My senior year I got an 02 f350 with a 7.3 and I’m about to start looking for a Cummins or a duramax
i bought a 2012 f150 3.5l turbo as my first car. i still have it, and i’m looking to upgrade , but it is great. reliable, decent gas mileage, and enough power to have fun. also, gets a lot of attention from girls ;)
I’m 14 currently own a 2013 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3, For those thinking daddy’s money I’ve been saving up forever and started working during the quarantine and have continued working, planning on putting a 6.5 in zone kit with wheels (don’t know which) and 35s
Tantic holy cow how much you getting paid . I’m 14 been saving forever and had job during quarantine and no wear near any thing that new. I have enough for a beat up obs ford. But I’m gonna still save till I’m old enough to actually drive it and maybe get something maybe a little nicer condition.
Yeah man, I salute you. I’m 15 I own a 2015 F-150 Lariat 5.0. My grandpa bought it brand new, ever since he got that truck I knew that that was the truck that I wanted. This truck is the vehicle that made me a ford guy. I’ve also been saving forever. When it’s done it will have a 2in lift, 33” Nitto ridge grapplers, 20” black rhino wheels, custom magnaflow exhaust, and more than likely supercharged. I don’t plan on ever selling the truck. I run a very little landscape company, so it will help out with that. Next truck will be a one ton 6.7 PowerStroke though.
First truck was a 1969 Ford F-250. Still have her and would make the same choice to have it as my first vehicle again. It taught me to maintain it, how to rebuild a carburetor, bleeding brakes, flushing fluids and built upon my work ethic because I had to get a job just to put gas in it.
Saved up for a long time leading up to my 16th birthday. Finally got enough money to snatch a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500. I have loved the truck. 3 inch spacer level lift with room for 37s, but I have 35s because gas gets expensive once you start getting anywhere past 33s. I couldn’t be happier!!
I really didn’t think the first gen tundra would be on this list, I know I’ve had issues with my transmission but the 4.8 is amazing and sounds amazing
For some more info the 3rd gen rams, from 2003 onwards it offered the Hemi with 345 horsies, and also 2006 onwards it offered MDS (Which you should stay away from, if you have to get one with MDS, tune it out immediately to save your lifters, and also recommend changing the cam and lifters if the engine has some high mileage on MDS.). I'd stay away from the 4.7 V8 as it had some..issues.

I bought an ex mining truck, 2008 Silverado 1500 reg cab long box 4.8 worktruck for $1800 put a whole new front end in it, put rancho quick lift leveling struts in it with 20x12 vision widows -51 with a 33”x12.5 deepdiggers 5% tint all around and brow, put an sct tuner in it with a spectre cold air intake and straight piped it out in front of back tire, wanna do a mild cam and put a stall 2800 with long tubes next😅 I watch you guys constantly and motivate myself to keep building love the content keep up the good work🤘🏻
My first truck was an 04 silverado 2500hd crew cab with the 6.0 v8. 1 owner no rust whatsoever.100k miles. Came with an ARE canopy and a leveling kit on 32s. Love it. Still have it. Drove it across the country from washington to tennessee with a trailer filled with everything I owned in it. Best road trip I've ever made lol. Averaged 200 miles per tank though lol. But it's still an awesome truck. The 6.0 sounds amazing with the flowmaster and the 3 inch exhaust. Saving up for a 6 inch lift. And some bigger wheels. Can't wait.
Going off a high school budget: I'm going to have to find an s10 or so around here. When I kill that truck, I'll definitely get one of the other chevys on this list.
I'm 16 and just got my first truck a 1996 Chevy Silverado 1500 and I love it. Y'all no matter what you got be proud of it whether it's 4 wheel or 2 wheel no matter the brand be proud cause not everyone has a truck like you
in my family we have had a 1999 silverado 1500 long bed reg cab with the 5.3 after 21 years and 135,000 miles of being in my family it is still going. it is a very reliable truck besides the trans slipping it is very great that happened 2 years ago
@@willmahan2181 @Colby Gentry I got a 2000 AC V8 4WD with about 200,000 miles on it but its well maintained and will prolly last forever. Bought it at 16. About to lift it

I sold my 2005 gmc sierra a few years ago with 435 k miles on the original engine. The guy drove it to Texas from North Dakota with no problems. Good trucks.
@@brodykoopman problem is what about insurance, gas, maintenance, ect. 5k isn't expensive, thats alone should be the minimum at which ine should have to get a car. 5k isnt being rich. If you cant afford 5k, your definitely not going to be able to reliably keep up with regular maintenance and cost of ownership.
@@brodykoopman and keep in mind the channel we're watching. What about the mods like lifts, exhaust, ect. If your buying a car for just transportation i can see where 1500 is bare minimum enough. But if your also planning on mods, no, its not enough.
Forgot the 04-08 F-150😫 Just bought some TIS rims from Custom Offsets and looking like the cleanest Truck in the area for it not being considered a “New Truck”
They seem to be hit or miss. My dad has one with 216k with zero issues. Other then a manifold leak. No other issues. But I think he just got really lucky.

My first truck was a 1995 ford f350 at 18, she had the 7.3 powerstroke with only 207,688 miles on er, spent 5,000 for her.

My first truck was a 2004 F350 Powerstroke reg cab long bed got a great deal at 13k. My family does custom farming so I have been working and saving my money since I was 10. I had the truck for only 11 months before selling it to my parents as a work truck. I bought the truck a couple months after turning 15 and almost a year later I have my current truck. I bought a 2015 F350 Powerstroke again reg cab long bed I got a great deal at 31,000 and was able to pay most up front in cash. I’ve grown up with Powerstrokes and I probably would only buy them (aside from a raptor).
Just be careful in highschool, everyone will say you have small you know what. They'll say it when you're an adult too, just not to your face. Get a Ram though, they last forever
@@RiverTester Yeah they do lol. Why do you think it's the best selling truck in America? I'll admit the GMT 400's were good as well as the 800's but after 2006 GM went downhill. I see more 80's and 90's Fords daily. I do see some GMT 400's as well.
Rust? I think you mean free weight reduction!
Shhhhh. Don’t be exposing the secerets
Until I can’t pass NH inspection 🤦♂️🤦♂️

Isn't rust heavier than regular steel until.... the inevitable happens

So I got a 04 ford f150 5.4 and any advice from a lift to type of rim I should run and the color of the truck is dark grey.
Kyle Beach depends if you want your truck tall or not and if you want to go chrome look or blacked out
My first vehicle was an '03 GMC Sierra with the 5.3l that I bought a couple years ago, and last month I bought a '94 Bronco. I'm a wee freshly turned 18 year old lad, trying to learn my way tinkering with the Bronco as a project
Theres no way!!! I was seriously talking about this today.... I really needed this!! Thank you so much boys!!
Perfect. I love the cats eye. I've owned 3 of them. 06 2500hd 6.0, 04 1500 5.3, 05 2500hd lbz. The lbz was by far the fastest, funnest.
have a 6.0, did you do any modifications to it
4 DOLLARS A GALLON DOWN HERE ITS 1.60 A GALLON DAMN
same
Its 1.80 in east TX. But I remember when it was WAY higher. I graduated in 05...
Jason go back to what he said and delete this comment so you don't look stupid
I remember when diesel fuel was 5.25 a gallon when I was stationed in Hawaii in 08 I’m glad it’s dropped significantly since then.
@@mikepage2831 man i feel bad for the truckers at that time
My first truck, that I just got is a 89' Ford Ranger, 7 inch lift, big boy tires, off road suspension, rust, dents, black rims, hard-to-close passenger door. I call him Lil' monsta
Love my cat eye single cab 4x4. 15 x12 on ko2’s. 3” spacers, Tiny Bit of lean👌 such a reliable rig! Definitely recommend
I have a 2001 silverado single cab with a 6in lift on 33s and 20 with the 5.3 , it is very reliable plus it nearly has 300,000 miles on it and I haven’t had any problems what so ever other than just simple wear and tear from running biggers tires ... i would recommend the round body silverados to anyone who likes them and is looking for their first truck , also the price for my entire setup (lift , wheels , tires) was barley over 2 grand . Very reliable and inexpensive for nice modifications
Super helpful!!!
I’m 14 and I’ve been watching you videos for a while and can’t wait to get my first truck
🙏🙏🙏
Im a ford guy that dailys a 2013 z71 silverado. My first truck was a 1998 v6 rwd dodge dakota. My dad bought it for me cheap. Didnt have a/c or heat. Humble little work truck. And i loved it. Gotta start somewhere. Taught me a lot of humility and how to fix things. Always gonna love that little bucket
god bless everyone to become successful through the hard times and live the lives they want with these awesome trucks!!!!❤️
Amen 🙏
Ahhhh my first truck. 07 lbz. Got it a week after turning 16 drive it 1k miles blew a head gasket wasted 4 injectors n it cost me about 4K for me to do it. Shop wanted around 6-8k pushing 490hp n prop 800ish ft lbs of torque
Honestly a square body would be nice
I agree but damn,they $5,000 with no engine or blown engine whether it's a 4x4 or not..a good decent rust free one is $10 to $15 grand...same for 80s n 90s Broncos...and dont even get me started on Tacoma 4x4 prices...or like an 85 yota,last year of the straight axles..i sold mine due to hard times for $2,800.00 by far dumbest shit I ever did... Y'all hava good one!! 'MERICA
My dad bought his for 2 and I got mine for 2500 absolutely love them
Charlie Stone i bought mine rust free off the first owner for 2900
That's first truck that I have. '85 k20
@@scottnickel8242 where???? In Cali those are going to at least $6k
I never really leave a comment but I gotta say the 88-98 gm trucks are a solid first truck to buy. It’s my current starter and even though I’m pretty young they are really easy to work on and great if you’re on a budget cuz if you need a part there’s a 9/10 chance there’s a dude on fb marketplace parting one out. Love the videos and hope you guys show some light on these iconic American trucks. Might not have the luxuries of today’s trucks but they got the job done
Honestly I love my OBS ford!
Not saying it is within everybody’s budget however I think a obs 7.3 (NOT the 4door long bed) is a good first vehicle. A bigger truck makes you think about your clearances, isn’t super jumpy on the gas or brake, and it’s size can be a reassuring feeling because you know your not just going to be squashed easily by a reckless driver. I got my truck for none of those reasons lol I got it because it’s been my dream truck since the 3rd grade haha
i’m 15 and been working my ass off, bought me a 3rd gen 2006 5.7L cummins, 2005 7.3L powerstroke, a 2006 chevy s10 and now working on buying a 2008 or so chevy silverado 1500. Lol, i guess i’ll only be a truck guy and not a car guy for a while haha.
Damn keep it up 💪
Keep in mind the 7.3s were from 99- early 03 in super duty trucks
I agree with first place. Good old cateyes has lasted me 213 with no problems besides a cracked leaf in the spring.
Heck I’m 30 and still rollin in my cateye
Good shit, love to hear it
I'm glad I watched this I'm buying a 1st gen 2000 Toyota tundra
I’ve had a job sense I was 12 lol saving for my jacked up truck 😂 and just turned 15!great video!
bruh same im 13 and i do construction with my dad ive been saving for like a 17,000 dollar f250 super duty im at 10,000
Same here. Work at the local ranch saving for a jacked truck
Ya same I’m 13 and my parents work at a camp so I help out just bought my first truck couple months ago
My dad's 2000 Silverado has ran over 300,000 miles. It has NOTHING in the engine but he put a 3 inch lift kit, a leveling kit, racing differential, a C7 Z06 5-speed automatic transmission, and a 38 in tires on it. She's a beauty
I have a 4th gen ram and absolutely love the truck! I don’t have the Hemi engine but the 287 ci magnum V8 does just fine, already did some mods to it and I’m gonna lift it pretty soon.
If you can I recommend a 2000-05 Toyota Tacoma. They cost a bit more to buy, but parts are on the cheaper side and do pretty good on gas mileage
If they have a fixed frame ya
I had a different vehicle every year of high school lol none of them were high end but I kept trading up
I thought I was the only one lol
Went from a 2005 Altima that was begging to be put down, to a now 1984 Ford bronco. All gotta start somewhere !
Diego Duckworth Lol heck yeah buddy, I inherited a 99 Toyota Camry then to a 99 f150 then a 08 dodge 1500 and My senior year I got an 02 f350 with a 7.3 and I’m about to start looking for a Cummins or a duramax
Same in my last two years of high school I’ve been through five vehicles just upgrading but I’ve settled for right now with my 06 z71 cat eye chevy
First truck i got was a dakota but i bought it as a project. My first driveable truck is and still currently is a 95' 3500 dodge
I was literally cruising lots today with my dad looking for my first truck😂😂😂💯🇨🇦

You're a lazy kid then, daddys money
@@henryespino2408 how?
@@imbless2141 He said that his dad is looking for him to buy a truck, he should work his ass off to buy himself a truck, not his dad
@@henryespino2408 they were looking not buying, and plus there is nothing wrong with you dad pitching in like 2k on a 15k truck for example
i bought a 2012 f150 3.5l turbo as my first car. i still have it, and i’m looking to upgrade , but it is great. reliable, decent gas mileage, and enough power to have fun. also, gets a lot of attention from girls ;)
I’m 14 currently own a 2013 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3, For those thinking daddy’s money I’ve been saving up forever and started working during the quarantine and have continued working, planning on putting a 6.5 in zone kit with wheels (don’t know which) and 35s
Tantic holy cow how much you getting paid . I’m 14 been saving forever and had job during quarantine and no wear near any thing that new. I have enough for a beat up obs ford. But I’m gonna still save till I’m old enough to actually drive it and maybe get something maybe a little nicer condition.
I'm 14 bought an 08 f250 for cheap. Had 3 jobs thru quarantine tho
Geez man what do you do that got you enough money for a 2013
Yeah man, I salute you. I’m 15 I own a 2015 F-150 Lariat 5.0. My grandpa bought it brand new, ever since he got that truck I knew that that was the truck that I wanted. This truck is the vehicle that made me a ford guy. I’ve also been saving forever. When it’s done it will have a 2in lift, 33” Nitto ridge grapplers, 20” black rhino wheels, custom magnaflow exhaust, and more than likely supercharged. I don’t plan on ever selling the truck. I run a very little landscape company, so it will help out with that. Next truck will be a one ton 6.7 PowerStroke though.
I salute you
First truck was a 1969 Ford F-250. Still have her and would make the same choice to have it as my first vehicle again. It taught me to maintain it, how to rebuild a carburetor, bleeding brakes, flushing fluids and built upon my work ethic because I had to get a job just to put gas in it.
Every high schooler needs a freaking Chevy s10
I got myself a ranger
_notchocheese_ mine was a dodge Dakota.. I got a 07.5 Mega cab now
Gotta appreciate the cheap stuff before you move up!
Unless you’re tall or a fatass, or both, like me.
They are beast
OR A FORD RANGER LOL
Saved up for a long time leading up to my 16th birthday. Finally got enough money to snatch a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500. I have loved the truck. 3 inch spacer level lift with room for 37s, but I have 35s because gas gets expensive once you start getting anywhere past 33s. I couldn’t be happier!!
Oh a truck? I been saving up for a 2021 yz125...
I really didn’t think the first gen tundra would be on this list, I know I’ve had issues with my transmission but the 4.8 is amazing and sounds amazing
For some more info the 3rd gen rams, from 2003 onwards it offered the Hemi with 345 horsies, and also 2006 onwards it offered MDS (Which you should stay away from, if you have to get one with MDS, tune it out immediately to save your lifters, and also recommend changing the cam and lifters if the engine has some high mileage on MDS.). I'd stay away from the 4.7 V8 as it had some..issues.
I just turned 16 and I’m getting my dads old 3rd gen Cummins.
Nice daddy’s money truck
@@claysumm5398 well he’s not buying me a truck he giving me his old truck so he can get a new one. So how is it daddy’s money. And even if it was what’s your problem. Many parents buy their kids cars. I think ur just a bit salty
@@nickdangelo7957 Dont mind him. Hes just mad cause he had to right the bus home until he graduated highschool

@claysumm hey sorry your parent didn’t care about you enough to plan on leaving you anything! It’s pretty nice having a 2016 ram rebel at 23 and without my parents help I wouldn’t be able to have a really cool truck! Maybe if you weren’t a pos people would help you
I’m 15 and I have a 1958 Chevy Apache 3600. It’s been in the family since new. I’m glad it’s my first truck
I'm 15 and not that far away from getting my drivers license. I am saving up for a 68 Ford F100 4x4 w/ a 4 speed. It's 9000 and I got 6500 so far.
I bought an ex mining truck, 2008 Silverado 1500 reg cab long box 4.8 worktruck for $1800 put a whole new front end in it, put rancho quick lift leveling struts in it with 20x12 vision widows -51 with a 33”x12.5 deepdiggers 5% tint all around and brow, put an sct tuner in it with a spectre cold air intake and straight piped it out in front of back tire, wanna do a mild cam and put a stall 2800 with long tubes next😅 I watch you guys constantly and motivate myself to keep building love the content keep up the good work🤘🏻
The 2002 dodge rams were still 2nd gen rams. 3rd gen rams started in ‘03 and ended in 2009/2010 depending on which model you got
02s are 3rd gens
My first truck was an 04 silverado 2500hd crew cab with the 6.0 v8. 1 owner no rust whatsoever.100k miles. Came with an ARE canopy and a leveling kit on 32s. Love it. Still have it. Drove it across the country from washington to tennessee with a trailer filled with everything I owned in it. Best road trip I've ever made lol. Averaged 200 miles per tank though lol. But it's still an awesome truck. The 6.0 sounds amazing with the flowmaster and the 3 inch exhaust. Saving up for a 6 inch lift. And some bigger wheels. Can't wait.
Going off a high school budget: I'm going to have to find an s10 or so around here. When I kill that truck, I'll definitely get one of the other chevys on this list.
I'm 16 and just got my first truck a 1996 Chevy Silverado 1500 and I love it. Y'all no matter what you got be proud of it whether it's 4 wheel or 2 wheel no matter the brand be proud cause not everyone has a truck like you
Ha sweet, bought my first cateye just last week :)
in my family we have had a 1999 silverado 1500 long bed reg cab with the 5.3 after 21 years and 135,000 miles of being in my family it is still going. it is a very reliable truck besides the trans slipping it is very great that happened 2 years ago
Aye some first gen tundra love finally thank you
I got one
I’ve got one too. Dirt cheap mods for an off road beast. 16 years old and have my dream truck
My 2000 is still running strong love it.
@@willmahan2181 @Colby Gentry I got a 2000 AC V8 4WD with about 200,000 miles on it but its well maintained and will prolly last forever. Bought it at 16. About to lift it
When I turned 14 I bought my Cateye with a 6.0 and best of all it came with with a head gasket leak. And a dead radiator and it didn’t even have a thermostat 😀👍
I live in montana and already have a truck this is just fun to watch
It really is. #MTbeststate
Just watched this after I bought my cateye. I'm proud of my decision now.
03 cateye with 279k miles original motor and transmission. These trucks run and run and run and run.
I sold my 2005 gmc sierra a few years ago with 435 k miles on the original engine. The guy drove it to Texas from North Dakota with no problems. Good trucks.
$5,000🤔 yeah I’m not rich I’m might be lucky to have 1500 to get a truck with
If you can't even save up atleast 5k you shouldnt even be looking to get a vehicle yet. 5k is already cheap.
John kenley You don’t need an amazing first car. You can find plenty of decent vehicles for under 5k.
@@brodykoopman problem is what about insurance, gas, maintenance, ect. 5k isn't expensive, thats alone should be the minimum at which ine should have to get a car. 5k isnt being rich. If you cant afford 5k, your definitely not going to be able to reliably keep up with regular maintenance and cost of ownership.
John kenley bought my 03 1500 Silverado 3 years ago for 1400. And it’s been very affordable for me and it’s a great truck.
@@brodykoopman and keep in mind the channel we're watching. What about the mods like lifts, exhaust, ect. If your buying a car for just transportation i can see where 1500 is bare minimum enough. But if your also planning on mods, no, its not enough.
Forgot the 04-08 F-150😫 Just bought some TIS rims from Custom Offsets and looking like the cleanest Truck in the area for it not being considered a “New Truck”
Did you just say the 5.4 was good??
As long as you don’t mind cam phaser issues and broken spark plugs hahaha
@@mikepage2831 2v 5.4s dont have cam phasers the 3v and 4v 5.4s have them

Pretty solid have one with 350,000 miles
they really are hit or miss. i have a post heritage 5.4 with 160k not a single problem. my dad has one aswell with 97k and has a manifold leak and a missing cylinder
My first truck was a 1995 ford f350 at 18, she had the 7.3 powerstroke with only 207,688 miles on er, spent 5,000 for her.

Get it man!
Yesss dude 1st gen tundra gang 🤙🏽
I love mine about to get my lift
16 and my first truck is a 2013 tacoma prerunner, I love this little thing and for a tacoma it has surprisingly good gas mileage

My first truck was a 2004 F350 Powerstroke reg cab long bed got a great deal at 13k. My family does custom farming so I have been working and saving my money since I was 10. I had the truck for only 11 months before selling it to my parents as a work truck. I bought the truck a couple months after turning 15 and almost a year later I have my current truck. I bought a 2015 F350 Powerstroke again reg cab long bed I got a great deal at 31,000 and was able to pay most up front in cash. I’ve grown up with Powerstrokes and I probably would only buy them (aside from a raptor).
Why no monstermax for the cat eye?
My first truck was an 05 3rd gen ram with the hemi. Never gave me problems and fun as hell. Non mds all motor.
Just be careful in highschool, everyone will say you have small you know what. They'll say it when you're an adult too, just not to your face. Get a Ram though, they last forever
chevys too as long as it’s not a ford 😂
