Default POLL: keep my truck, build an offroader..... or.....

ok guys.... i keep flip flopping back and forth with these ideas... me and the clam have been talking and trying to decide what do do and im torn....


Idea 1: keep my diesel, sell my jeep and build a decent little daily / trail rig

Idea 2: sell both and pick up a nice newer diesel



ok as some of you guys know me and the girl are going to try and have a kid / start a family etc.... so im debating on getting something w/ a lot less miles than whats on my diesel and just something NEWER

or just keeping my truck... fixing a few things with it and selling the jeep and building a decent little off road rig / toy... but do i really want to have 2 "toys"?



i can comfortably afford around $20,000 worth of truck payments so thats not the issue at all.....


what do you guys think???? and dont just vote and not comment.... i want to know WHY you voted the way you did.

Keep the truck, sell jeep, build toy. Why? Build something you like and want. If you want it to be a dailly do it! Keep the Found On Road Dead to haul/tow whatever you need. From the pics I have seen you got some decent money wrapped up in it, so I would keep it. But that is just my opinion, and we know what they say; they are like assholes, everyone has one. In the end it boils down to what YOU want and are looking for.

I would lower the diesel, make it a DD, build the fuck out of the Jeep, get a trailer and trailer it to real trails and have GREAT TIME.

If thats not the plan, newer diesel baby hauler.

my mindset: why go through all the time /hassle lowering my diesel and making it a DD though... i have had offers for 15k on it how it sits... which is a hellofalot more than what i owe on it


plus navy fed is offering me a GREAT rate on a new truck.....


grrrr i dunno

Why would you have to lower the diesel to DD it? It is fine the way it sits.

Sell the truck to me, and buy a new one

Keep what you have, and build something that has to be towed to the off road location. Dana 60's, spools, 44's, headers like on tractor pullers, 400+ ci, divorced transfer case..ect...ect
