Oh I forgot I got those headlights I blackout and put trs lenses in but someone would have to have a gt model to switch those
 
Jen and I stopped in Mansfield to look at a Hyundai Veloster. Pretty cool little car.

we just looked at one yesterday...not practical and way overpriced imo. it has 3 doors...i mean, it wouldn't work with us with kids that ride in car seats. how would you get to that kid that's not by the door??? and it's like $21-23k for the ones we saw...that's pricey...and it had sparkly silver specks in the seats...weird and/or ricer :D.

so then sean went and test drove a skyactiv mazda3...we'd rather have that!!
 
A friend of mine just traded his Speed3 in for one of those. I haven't gotten a chance to look at it yet though.

FWIW, he likes the Speed3 better but was going for lower payments.

The Velostar is like a BMW X6: it answers a question no one asked.

Agreed, on both. Why doesn't it have a 4th door? And let's not forget the Accord Crosstour. WTF is that thing!? Their slogan "Engineered for... whatever." is pretty accurate. It isn't really made to do anything in particular.

I HATE the crosstour. some cars just shouldn't be made

Well it's been a whirlwind of a day for me. I whipped um out and bought this badboy http://www.cars.com/go/search/detai...rId=23765&rpp=50&feedSegId=28705&aff=national
It was really sad to see my Mazda go but I knew this was right FOR ME. I Want to get back into hunting and fishing more like I use to enjoy. If I could I would keep them both... And buy a Lamborghini too.

That looks like a nice truck, congrats.

Looks wise the car is pretty sweet. I had plenty of leg room. Not enough power, yet. They have rumors of a 208hp turbo model next year. The back seat is a joke. There is no way any one could sit back there. Even if they would fit, they would be baked under the hatch glass. We are not in the new car market, just wanted to check that thing out.

sean was actually able to fit in the back seat...i was kinda surprised at the room back there. i had plenty of leg room and sean didn't have to scoot the seat all the way back. yes, you would get cooked in the sun, though.

i agree that it wasn't necessary...i asked if it was turbo after i saw the price, lol. i promptly went over to look at the regular hatchback thing they have (the accent??) and their wagon. better priced imo (16k for the hb and 19k for the wagon i looked at) and a lot more space!

we probably still would never buy a hyundai because we had one right before we bought our mazda and it got bought back under lemon law due to a faulty break system that would just lock up randomly...crazy scary.
 
Nice truck Ryan! Glad to see everything work out for you. I'll be in touch about a few things if you still have them (namely, winter wheels...) I gotta save up some cash for two or three weeks, so by all means, get rid of them if you can. But I will consider taking them soon.

Thanks to all that helped me out this weekend. It was really appreciated that everyone banded together. I hope to meet up with Will today and get everything finalized...
 
Ain't no shame in a truck game, Ryan! It looks good.

I'm of the belief that there should be a truck in every household. I'm going nuts not having one right now! lol
 
Thanks everyone just let me know when you want my winter set up James. Ivan I got the lip here for you too whenever you want it I'll just give it to you for 50 since ur phens roomie and he's helped me out a few times. Plus it's a little beat up let me know when you want to get it and you can pay whenever or next time I'm up north i will just drop it off.

I probably could've gotten you a better deal. (lol2)

Awesome truck though. Quite an upgrade too. I didn't see if it's an EcoBoost or not?
 
^ maybe I got the z plan so I don't think they can adjust the price much. it was just getting the right price for my car I had to haggle w them. I didn't want the Eco boost I got the 5.0.
