I enjoy beating on SOME camaros & t/a.... so I would say stick with the truck but do what you want.... of course a car is faster but, for some reason we are all in here trying to make trucks fast, and thats because its more IMPRESSIVE...

Think hard dude. I am keeping my car stock and will have a project truck down the road. I will miss having the hauling/towing capability for now.....but then again no one will ask me to help them with **** anymore.

when i was in the market for an f-body awhile back, my insurance was only going to go up an extra 30 bucks a month so im not worried about that, and last month my insurance dropped 70 bucks so insurance isnt a problem

Charles just do some major thinking and figure out if you can live with a car. If you get an f-body is the truck gone or are you keeping the truck and getting rid of the beater? If you are getting rid of the beater then hell yeah get the f-body if you are getting rid of the truck you need to decide if there is any real reason you need a truck. I NEED a truck but do you?
im going to keep the truck stock for a DD as well as my beater, as well as a camaro, just like to have a bunch of cars to drive lol

I hear you, demod it sell them use that as a downpayment on an f-body and start playing. I would keep the corsa intake and tune on it since itll give a little bump in performance and gas mileage but sell whatever else you got on it. You could always throw the 228 in the car

I think the age factor comes into play here. You give a 20 year old kid a camaro and watch the rates rise.

ya the only thing i plan on keepin on the truck is the exhaust, intake and tune. and selling everything else. hoping to get at least 2 grand for all the stuff i have in it. plus my income tax check will be here next week and thats over 3 grand so i should have a good down payment to put down

and as far as the insurance beau, its only 30 bucks more a month so its cheap for me
