I have a digital camera that can record videos, but the batteries would probably die fairly quickly, and I don't have a mount.

Well normal operating range for RPM's when I'm driving around town is 1-2k RPM's, and unless i mash the pedal to the floor and hold it there until I'm going 70MPH in a 40MPH zone, i never get above 3k RPM's. I don't think i made that very clear, still with me? K, i get on the highway and get up to speed (the limits here are usually around 65-70 MPH) I'm already pulling 4k RPM's, which is above normal. If i try and actually keep up with traffic, IE 80+MPH, i start pulling in the 6-7K RPM range, my truck is just geared really low, and being such an old truck, i don't know if I'm comfortable pulling 7,500 RPM's going 85 MPH for 3 hours while i drive to whereever i go, usually out to the mesa to off road. I don't want the engine to throw a rod or what-have-you, even if it is recently rebuilt.

On a different note, I'm actually thinking of selling my truck...As for what i will buy afterwords, I have my eye on these two, but haven't made up my mind on a few different things yet (Which of the two to get, look at different ones, or don't sell mine at all, etc.) Anyways, here are the links:

that is a seriously cool t-shirt :buddy:
NOOOOOOooooo keep your truck. I myself am a sucker for old vehicles and would prefer an old vehicle to a new one. Also justin if I saw your truck IRL I would probably stop and take a picture of it. Speaking of, I'll post some pictures I took at a car show. Turned out pretty good if I may say so myself.
yeah cuz its not like theres a new-era bronco in my post or anything
but i know. :v:

Not with that tire/rim combo. Truck is a total road queen.
Badass shirt by the way. I can see myself buying that in the near future.

I think you should keep your truck
Oh yea Doc. H, my buddy at school got his 93' Ramcharger. Will try to snap a picture or two this week.
Edit: I would keep your truck Justin but also check out the Explorer if you go the other route.

Nice. Next time it rains im going to go out to the nearest dirt field and have some fun in my truck. Then grab my camera that took the following pictures and try to get some nice shots.

I'm going to agree on the wheels, light tinting may be taking it to far as well.

Just a bit. It doesn't look bad other than the rims. Slap a push bar on, offroad lights, and a few whip antennas, and some non-tinted clear head/tail lights and it'll look like an Excusion's supposed to look like... A mobile command unit XD
But it seriously has that post-apocalyptic vibe to it.
here are pictures I took at a car show. Mostly of older cars. Some were sadly ruined by lens flare. But hey, not bad for my first try at photography.

oh man oh god oh man
:dance:
i`m guessing it`s the vq35hr not the de
either way still crazy 1000 hp holy shit
do you have any more pics or a link to more pics or anything
Well it seems everyone doesn't want me to sell the truck ssoo..
I've had it up on craigslist for about a week now for $6k, the truck if i remember right is only even worth about $2,500, but I've already had three people asking me for more pictures and info...If not one offers to come test drive it by the time the adds expire I'll just keep it and work on doing more work to it every once in a while.
I'm also working on investing in a suction-cup camera mount design (sticky pods to be exact) as i don't have any headrests to mount a homemade one to, so when i get that, I'll make an incar video of it, she's loud :D I also figured it would be a good investment because i can take it with me when i go offroad and record videos without holding the camera so i think it will be some well spent money. I'll let you all know when i get it home :P I've already got a few walkarounds of it on my youtube page if anyone is interested in the meantime.
I guess a GReddy TT gives the hr 700 hp so 1000 isn`t too far-fetched
Yes. Dont sell it. Its an awesome truck man. I HATE being poor. Every single day I go outside and look at my truck and my mind just runs and runs on all the stuff I could do to it right now. Then I remember I have no money. :saddowns:

not wanting to re-ignite the flame that is the ever on going argument between me and you, but:
this is the reason why you don`t buy a truck when you already have a working car when the only money you possess will be gone after the purchase of the truck
could have spent that truck money making your GT HeLlA FlUsH :c00lbert:
Eh. not a whole ton I could have done with $950 really. New interior would have been nice. Due to a long story, I have some bills starting this month that will be sucking up the rest of my paycheck. I just wanted to hop on this truck and get something I can take camping, even though it wont have the custom stuff I want, before I became completely broke every month.

Mmm. Dat cobra. Do you know if it was a kit car or an original?
I'd cream my pants if it was real.
original.
In my opinion it was a good buy for 950 bucks.

sure but now he has no money to do anything with either car
A minolta x700. I have no Idea why the pictures look that way but I love them like that. I also used generic film.
I may have no money to do anything special with the vehicles. But I have a perfectly running car for town. And an almost perfectly running (some smog stuff has yet to be put on) truck with a bad paint job that I can still take camping in the mountains.
made my parking lights a little brighter, think i might start using them as daytime lights
