interesting, im leaning more toward getting the truck for a bit and using the money from selling the civic for a beater car as well.

perhaps what i said in my first post got lost in the conversation. I said i hardly drive to work in manhattan from the island, i TAKE THE TRAIN IN. So, really, is it worth paying 420 a month to drive my civic around town and to the station, or could an m1028 accomplish this task? And could it...

eh im sure i can get away with it on the parkways, i know alot of the cops and they dont bust balls with pickups. Tolls idk, i just thought they considered it a passenger car. ITs only 2 axle dosnt look like a beefy crewcab longbed dually haha

damn! what for?! haha

heh, i guess ill do the rhino then as long as theres no rust in there already (which there shouldnt be with the ammount i want to spend) I dont plan on driving to work in the 1028 unless i miss the train, and thats an hour and a half i guess at most. Though i may drive upstate, but that might be...

okay, so i guess im gonna go with this petroleum oil type stuff for undercoating. It seems people think oil undercoats the best so ill do that. The place says if i rhinoline the bed itll save me 50bucks, but im not sure i wanna do this on a cucv, opinions?

haha, yeah i have a glasspack now on my blazer, i didnt think putting an new pipe on a diesel would make any difference. Thanks for the replys ill check out undercoatings on ck5. MY friend lives like 5-6 hours upstate, thats the longest id ever go with it.

oh yeah, assuming i find a truck with no rust underneath, what kind of prep and undercoating should i use to help protect it from that crap around here. I dont want to destroy a mint truck and i want to try to do what i can to protectit. IT will be going on the beach in the summer (and i do wash...

hmm, true, as i said the only issue is that i owe alot of money on the car still and to pay 300 more a month for the car to just sit is insane i think. I frequently drove my truck around town and i dont mind the ride, but thats a k5. Train stations only 4-6 miles away methinks. Plus if i were to...

well i found out that along with the normal unknowns for a 20 year old truck, it wont go over around 50mph, will be loud and it has no stereo. I figure i can buy a deck and speakers and use a whip antenea for the hell of it. But i never owned a deisel, any differences i should know?

thanks

yeah i forgot to mention i want the m1028. I dont have the skills to drop in an OD tranny, but maybe some bigger tires. Im thinking 33s or 35s BFG muds on a 4inch lift eventually, but thats down the road a bit.

Reposted from ck5: The story is i work in manhattan, i live on long island. So i take the train in now and that wont change at least for another 3 years when i make the jump from EMS to fire. I work 5 days a week basically, the only thing my 03civic is doing is getting my to the station and...
