funny you mentioned walmart cuz thats where the first hit and run was at with my 370z. Was coming into the parking lot. Women that was coming the oppsite direction made a turn to wide while she was on her cell and scraped along my driver side. Took off, i chased her, couldnt get a hold of cops so she agree'd to go to the police station with me, she tried to run again and then tried to hit me once i wouldnt leave her alone. Cops wouldnt do a damn thing. Second time was i think in a Canadian Tire parking lot...not sure. Was driving the Z in the winter and washed it off right before i was heading out on a deployment. Washed all the dirt off my rear bumper and seen that someone must have tried to turn into the space next to me and scraped along my bumper, left no info.

I went through a truck phase. At the time, it made a lot of sense. Long commute to work on bad winter roads, lots of home improvement projects, etc. Good luck with the Tacoma. I like the way they look, and they have apparently fixed the frame rot problem from a few years back.

Same happend to me in 2008, got a job out of state and had to move. Got a 2006 Toyota Tacoma XRunner, nice truck with like 18K miles. But the gas price, never been a truck guy plus the urge for a 350Z since it came out drove my to trade the truck even that it was very comfortable and useful at that time.

See i never been a truck guy before, but when i seen the deal on this truck and the fact that it has a viper engine, i couldnt resist. Basically it mainly came down to the engine for me, haha.

Maybe your Z can do this sort of thing? This is my truck, and it's used as a truck.

OP, I loved my Z too, but times and priorities change, part of life. Good luck with the new ride!

^ Garrett Likes this.

Yeah I got a truck instead of the Z after I got back into Steelhead fishing again. Hard to drive up old logging trails in a coupe. For some reasons dents don't bruise me as easily with my truck. It's kind of meant for punishment. Wish I had a longer bed though.

Congrats on the new Truck 370zsport09!


Edit: Wait! HS Tin! You dropped the Z???

Edit2: Said goodbye to the Z today

Trucks are cool as hell. Lifted and big tires and so on and so forth. Had an F-150 2.5 inch rough country lift, 20 inch nitto terra grapplers. Loved it, mudding is fun. The clean up is not. And it comes in handy moving stuff. It got 10-12 mpg which I wasn't too happy about.

I sure do! If you haven't noticed, quite a few people are saying ADIOS to the Z.
