It is cheap insurance but I would way rather find a buddy who already had it than buy one to use once. Good thinking Ironballs.

I am terrible at buying used cars. I always want something cool. I needed a halfton and ended up with a 86 F350 dumptruck dually with a 460 and a 4 speed.
The thing was indestructible and could move a house but driving it to school nearly bankrupted me and it was the ugliest vehicle ever. The vehicle before that was a Ranger 4X4 that I painted urban(black white and grey) camo. It needed constant attention to keep running had the most complicated eletronic carb in history and looked like I was in the Taliban.

If I was buying a car now I would probably end up with a 80's Shelby Rampage(mini elcamino)I have had my eye on.
