UPDATE: MAY 22, MARCH 2019.
1-THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR REPLIES AND WILL ANSWER LOTS OF YOUR QUESTIONS.
2-The truck has a $9800 balance pay pay off.
3-The truck has a strange noise when you put it on 4x4 (high or low) and gets stuck returning back to normal 2wd mode(maybe I'm doing something wrong).
4-The white smoke is not that much, I saw the heavy smoke two months ago when it extremely cold here in San Diego/raining, and I had the heater on high and had just turned the engine on to move. I have not seen it that bad anymore but just very mild and not continuous. Guess its normal but will take it to a repair shop and have em look at it well for a cracked head or valves and such and have em check the 4x4 issue. I may not really be even able to afford to repair thing beast if something that big a repair came along.
5-The gas expense is huge because its a 5.7 liter HEMI engine, fils up with about 80-120 bucks (depending on gas prices, and they are going up again). I'm told its a 32 gallon tank (none of I knew when i bought it, I was concerned about a home and saw this beast like a God, speciailly the inside of the rear cab/you can fit a twin size, possibly full size bed easily). When I was living in/out of it I had to drive a lot to find a safe parking spot almost daily and sometimes could not find something comfy, it was a lot of driving around. Park one area to sleep, drive to spend the day in another only to leave at night to find another place to sleep. And that went on almost daily... yeah, lots of gas! I did have an opportunity to rent in Baja for $150 a month in two beach front camping spots, LOVED IT, and very happy but got lonely in one of them after a while. Went to a 2nd one and met Americans and enjoyed the girls in bikinis, also 150 a month but I also had an overhead camper at the time with a bed, stove, and TV, its sold now and was falling apart badly. If the mechanic tells me the truck is in good condition and the 4x4 thing is xtremely costly or finds other near future big repair costs then I wont afford to repair it, with that? Only way to afford it is to park at the campgrounds or a cheap apartment in Baja under 200 and seldom use it.
6-The PINK SLIP I am not even sure who has it! My registration just says my name and the name of the bank. I don't have any pink slip except the registration.
7-I've never heard of debt being a crime or felony in USA. I'm currently looking at the options of either filling for Bankruptcy Chapt13 (I am on disability income/SSI/SSDI). I have nothing to offer back, no money, no land, no furniture, nothing! I have my 12String Taylor Acoustic guitar valued at $1000 but I'm not going to be stupid to hand that over. I also am going to talk to the bank and ask about lowering my payments and tell em the issue is the gas, its making me more poor than I already am and can't even get an apartment or else how am I going to pay the utilities! I'll have nothing left to eat! Seriously!
8-The truck has a hitch in the middle of the bed for a 5fth wheel or goodneck pull hitch I was told, its also reversible. I know nothing about these things but was told and confirmed its a hitch for either a 5th wheel or goosneck pull hitch.
9-The RPM meter sometimes works.
10-The registration is due June (about $300 bucks).
11-Three nights before I was taken to the mental hospital I don't recall how many times I drove and drove around to find a safe place to park that it now was the 2nd night of terrible sleep and on the 2nd night I fell asleep parked at Walmart Imperial Beach from fatigueness after taking my meds and the SDPD came and did every single DUI test and I passsed all of them. Then some 3rd cop came and tried to see if I was high or drunk and could not find anything on me, I was tired like a dog and fell asleep with the engine on. They gave me a ticket saying I had to take a new safety driving test, my license was revoked until I did sent my doctors fill out paperwork to let the Dept. DMV Safety division know I have no history of seizures or fainting issues. They made me take a new written test and on the 4th wrong answer they told me my license was suspended until they hear from my doctors paperwork and retake the written and driving test over.
12-I COULD GIVE A RATS ASS ABOUT MY CREDIT SCORE, its been bad for years thanks to CAPITAL ONE bank who helped themselves dive into my bank account and then fell really behind on credits I had been in very very good standing. I have one credit card now and they told me my interest went from 21% to suddenly almost 30%! WTF? AAA car insurance gave me this BS story that my insurance was now almost 90 dollars because they said I had removed renters insurance! When the FK have I had renters insurance if I've been living in the streets???? Duh! I even told them if they wanted me to drive over to show them inside of my truck where I lived! I was paying almost 63 a month a few months ago, now they are saying that its because i dont have their "BUNDLE." Now I'm seeing other auto insurance have "bundle and save on your car insurance." I was raised in America and I' a legal Mexican and US Citizen but man, America is all about squeezing money out of you any way they can, specially CALIFORNIA. OH, they are raising a $10 tax hike on your drinking water. Gee, thanks Governor of California!
13-I'm going to take the truck to find out if the 4x4 issue is in dire repair and if the engine is in fair shape (meaning the whit smoke is normal/no damage to engine block/4x4 is not a huge expense but it they tell me bad news Im going to either file for bankruptcy Chap 13 and hope for the best if they give me my license back I'll save to buy a cheap POS 4x4 economical 4cylinder stick shift pickup under $1500 bucks and in cash! If the truck is in good and fair cost conditions I'll reconsider saving to buy another bigger overhead camper and park and stay at one of the 150 beach campgrounds in Baja and avoid moving all over. The 2nd campground is very nice and safe with guards and Americans to speak to in English. And if all fails with getting negotiations with bank and/or mechanic says its an expensive repair I'll return it, file for bankruptcy and if thats a crime then I'll just go to jail or make magic and pull money out of my wabbits ass! I'M TIRED OF SUFFERING WITH ALL THIS EMOTIONAL STRESS AND DONT' WANT TO GO BACK TO ANY PSYCH HOSPITAL OR GO INTO A DEEP DEPRESSION AGAIN. I FKD UP AND IF THAT MAKES ME AN IRRESPONSIBLE US CITIZEN THEN I'LL STAND IN LINE WITH ALL THEM FKRS AT THE WHITE HOUSE WHO ARE ALSO AVOIDING TAXES AND GET AWAY WITH IT OR ALL THOSE ON FOODSTAMPS TRADING THEM FOR CRACK!
14-And finally.... if you wish to buy the truck and help me out give me a shout
[email protected] I'm in San Diego and can meet you with advance notice. I'll even clean the truck and polish it for you if your seriously interested. Remember, I owe about $9800.00 and if you offer me something less then that your not getting the tittle to your name unless you pay the whole pay off amount. I will offer to pay $1500.00 if your willing to take the truck as is and agree to wait till I pay the balance, 6 months approximately.
