It is finally time for my daughter to get her first vehicle and she wants a truck but we are having a tough time finding one in our price range.
My deal with all my kids is that I will match them dollar for dollar on their first vehicle. It encourages them to work and save their money and gives them some pride in ownership and all that. She's now saved over $1,000 and still going.
Here's the interesting part; she wants an older truck with "character". She saw an awful looking beater POS online at a dealer in Norman and fell in love. We went to look at it and it was worse than pictured so we passed on it but she was not deterred from wanting something older. She keeps seeing 80's and early 90's model single cab trucks that catch her eye. She wants a "little" truck. Any truck with a single cab and short bed is "little" in her eyes.
We're going out to Shawnee this week, there's a place with a few used trucks in our ($2,000 - $4,000) price range. Does anybody know where else in the OKC area I should be looking?
