        Don't need or want a truck. My work provides me a service truck (plus I just don't like them). I wish my dad was giving me the money but that's not the case. I work there right now mrsleeve!

          I know where rock springs is man...

          If you have a company truck then why worry about doing 10k in mods to your car. The Oil patch is boom and bust man, you may have a job making bank today. A stroke of a pen from DC, or any other plethora of variables and the ride could be over for many years, not to mention Natural Gas prices are in the shitter right now. drillers are cutting NG drilling/exploration back sharply for the year. Low man on the pole get the ax 1st, have seen it many many times, kid gets job and spends money like a fool only to get the ax 3 months latter.

          I say save your coin and and be smart with your money, and dont be spending anything you dont have too right now. In the patch as green hand your Job security is about as good as pizza lasting 10mins at a weight watcher convention.

              Well with my CDL and working for a family owned company I'm not too concerned with layoffs considering I'm even going back to school next spring with money I already saved, money's not an issue, I've had money for a long time prior I mostly am curious as to what other peoples suggestions would be as where to begin with mods If I can make my car my way with 500 dollars then all the better. Thanks for the life lesson though I've been here and I have seen the rise and fall of the oil fields a couple times. Farbin Kaiber where is your shop I might need some assistance here soon lol I have friends in Pocatello and Preston.

                          Well if money isn't a current or future concern, I'd still buy a truck and not worry about the horrible economy. You WILL be the laughing stock of your co-workers trying to make it to work everyday in a vert, especially if you dump a further $10k into suspension mods, rims and shiny paint.

                              I think I'd rather have a straight 6 diesel.

                                Acquire 86-95 toyota pickup. then put this on it - http://www.chaosfab.com/95200.php - then when guys at work laugh at your little truck take them on a ride that involves flying through the air. then enjoy the STFU'ing that occurs. plus your still way under 10g :D
