trading in the truck :(

pumo420 · Jan 15, 2010

im going to trade it in sometime next week, i can't afford the payment and expense anymore, but it would be nice to get something that was more economical especially with gas, i found this the other day, that im really interested in, 20th anniversary gti #1565

but with that being said going to have a couple things for sale!!!!!

I doubt you will see a difference in payment, between your x and this.

Xer0 SiN · Jan 15, 2010

my friend has one just like that #2265...nice recaro interior...and its a peppy for what it is...

pumo420 · Jan 15, 2010

well the payment would be $200 bucks cheaper a month plus gas would be alot better on it.

Those headlights scream retrofit :laugh: ... yuck.

Amarillo X · Jan 15, 2010

Sorry to see another X sold, but I hope everything works out for you.

be careful with the volkswagens. they have a lot of electrical problems. but that is a good model to have

Tunedx · Jan 15, 2010

Can't go wrong with a v-dub. I also heard some models having electrical issues. Too bad most models are made in Mexico now.

pumo420 · Jan 16, 2010

yeah im looking forward to the trade cant really go wrong wit 25mpg + you know. the main problems i hear about vw's is getting the timing beld and water pump changed out before they go bad.

shaggy08xr · Jan 16, 2010

I have also heard the electrical problem rumor. My problem would be the replacement parts are going to be crazy expensive. GL with the trade bro

You'll love that car!

the gf has an 09 Rabbit sport 4door with a 5spd manual and that car is fantastic. If vw made a truck the size of a taco i'd be all over it!

shes got over 70,000 in about 8 months (2hours total commute daily) since new and its had 0 problems short of her ipod adapter thing stopped working and one interior light bulb blew lol.

serious electrical gremlins for sure.......NOT.

Murderface · Jan 16, 2010

My bro has a 2001 1.8 turbo and everything is breaking on it. Just stupid shit like all the interior locks and hinges and little doors and stuff. Not to mention his timing belt broke and bent all his valves, $2300 later engine is fixed.

Just too much money to fix or maintane one of those, not to mention it's FWD:thumpdown:

pumo420 · Jan 17, 2010

yeah i heard that timing belts are a nightmare, havent heard to much about electrical problems, not to much out there really interests me though, just wish i was making more money these days

Venomous_X · Jan 17, 2010

I think it looks like nowadays everything you buy is bound to have issues, its what issues you would rather deal with is what determines what you want to buy. I like those vdubs, and dmc had a sick ass vdub to model that one after....Parts are expensive but if you want to play, you gotta pay. If not then you should just drive a chevy aveo. :frown: I say if its going to be cheaper get it. Everyone who says they want cheaper to save money ends up spending the extra dough to mod anyway so don't follow in hewhoridesatnight's footsteps if you can help it :top:

pumo420 · Feb 8, 2010

false alarm decided to keep it lolol, i figured i only i have 2 years left when i go back to nantucket i should make enough money to pay off my loan and get everything done with, i love my truck and really can;t part with it. so ifigured the best way to go is back to stock and wait till im ready to have boost again.

06XR-SW · Feb 8, 2010

ill take care of the s/c!!!!

Xtacy · Feb 9, 2010

sorry to hear that bro...i know times are tough

nine9six · Feb 9, 2010

Good to hear your keeping the XR! I had a VR6 Jetta, and I liked the car. But once things start going out in 'em, it seems they just start falling apart.

Just my experience...
