opinions for second car/truck

ok, come hell or high water. im keeping my mustang,

with that said, im getting a Second Vehicle next year. would like opinions please,

truck, i want a used truck because i've always wanted a new bass boat 'nitro'

car, now im going to have 2 cars, so the boat would be out of the question, but if i do im thinking about a muscle car, let me know what you guys think,

I'd go with the truck... you'll have the best of both worlds with a car and a truck!
Having both would be beneficial to you in different ways, one for hauling things and the other for cruising around in.
Good luck!

Truck. Having space/ability to haul something around is very nice. If you get another fast car, or a project car, prepare to kiss your money goodbye. It'd really defeat the purpose of getting a second vehicle.

If you want old muscle then be prepared to enjoy the other expenses that go with it since they require a bit more attention than your every day car.

Eventually I will be getting out of my mustang and going with a DD truck with an old muscle car That's the route I would go. With the modern drivetrain, as long as its installed correctly and every detail is taken care of it will essentially be a newer car with the classic old styling

Truck, no boat. Truck can pay with hauling whatever, for the car.
