First truck. 15 years old. Help please.
but, tint and thats it.
You are going to wreck, or break it, or do something REALLY stupid with it. So save your time and money, every time you go to buy something for that truck put that money in a savings account.
Later after you have learned to drive, and assuming you are still alive and able to drive you can buy a nice newer (or something else) car/truck and use the money you saved on it!
Rule of thumb, everyone (normally) wrecks or otherwise breaks the first car/truck they get, keep that in mind.
I wrecked and totaled two different cars (and had to fix them back) before I got my truck and learned to stop driving like a idiot.
Keep this in mind, ever dollar you put in that truck is $1 you ARE NEVER going to get back PERIOD! If I was you I would save my money, I wish I had half the money I spent on my first and second car back, I bet id would have at least $2,000 ($1,500 from stereo setup at least!) and all the other useless junk I bought.
A lot of times, first cars end up "riced out" on accident.
Leave it alone, it was stock for 130K miles, leave it that way till you get some more sense and better judgment.
Also, I was a lot harder on my first two cars because they where bought for me, now I value and respect my truck because I have to pay for it, and I have to pay to fix it.

My opinion:
-The feeling of getting mods done is great- just dont take things to far as previosly said by NCSU etc.
-Don't try to argue with the guys who have been on here for a while. You wont win, and chances are they know alot more than you.
-You don't need to say "im 15 and dont have my permit yet but i have a truck" , Im young too, but its almost like your bragging. Dont bother bringing age into it- just ask what people think about some cheap mods for your truck.
Oh and also, this forum was funny to read XD

You can easily have a nice truck at a young age and take care of it. I got my truck at 16. Made it what it is. And its still in one perfectly functioning piece 3 years later (6 year old truck).
The only advice is when you are looking at getting something, no matter how cool you may think it is at the time. Listen to the forum. If the majority of people say no, then dont do it. I made the mistake with multicolor LED underglow and cheap projector headlights. lol.
