Since my old thread was locked for not being OC related, I am looking for the following:

Looking to buy a newer truck to OC in *with my CPL*. This vehicle will be donning an MOC sticker (provided I can con someone out of one, as I used my last one on my now totaled Jeep), NRA sticker, and various other gun rights stickers. Specifications must meet the following criteria:

4x4.
Quad cab/super cab (For baby seat, once I get around to having one. lol)
American-Made (Ford, Dodge, or Chevy)
No rust
Under 100k miles.
Under or close to $10,000.

I'm checking craigslist, GL4x4, etc, as well, but I figured I'd drop another line, since this is in fact firearm and OC related now. :lol:

Somebody got an OC-Mobile for me? :celebrate

Which I think you already know Kyle.

If you don't bother reading the 10+ stickies on our page, and just want to OC without any knowledge of the law, then that's not my problem. There's already tons of stuff covering this.

I'll even edit my original post to say that I need an OC mobile with my CPL, just to make you happy.

...and the profits stay at home.

Damn you army.

LOL


Anyway, I checked autotrader, and found a pretty sweet F150, I'm gonna give them a call tomorrow. A bit pricier than I want, but if I can talk them down a tad, I'll be getting a sweet truck.

If I had a michigan pistol, maybe. lol.

My Mossberg is too long. Not quite sure even if I put a pistol grip on it if it'd qualify or not. 20" barrel.

whats the length from the back of the receiver to the muzzle?

should be able to pull just under 30 with a top folding stock if the reciever is short enough.

Looking at a 2001 Dodge Ram 4x4 SLT extended cab, 85K miles, that I talked the guy down to $8700. Fully loaded.

My wife thinks that there's gotta be something wrong with it if it's that cheap. I took it for a test drive, it drives like a champ. Seems like a damn good deal to me.

I think Kyles point is, in the eyes of the law...there is no such thing as OC in a vehicle. A gun "carried" in a vehicle is ALWAYS considered CC. Therefore only legal with a CPL.

I don't think I'm gonna end up getting the Ram. I've asked for a Carfax twice, and was dodged twice. They appear to be hiding something.

Almost bought a Chevy Avalanche earlier, had a credit check ran, monthly payments set up, etc..

Asked for a Carfax, and the vehicle had been in THREE accidents.

Yes, THREE.

I didn't buy that Avalanche.


Oh, and Scott, though I know you're trying to help here, again, my original thread was locked because it didn't involve OC or firearms. Though I mentioned OC, firearms, etc; truth be told, this thread has absolutely nothing to do with guns whatsoever, and I know I don't have to explain that to you.

I think those credit checks are just 'soft checks', but I'm not sure.

Soft checks don't effect credit at all.

I guess you've got a point though, being that I don't know for sure, and with near perfect credit, that's not something I wanna muck up.
