i still dont understand, you have one now, is it paid for?? im telling you, you will regret getting rid of it. keep it, get a job, buy your truck, and then when you have enough saved fix the shee. think of what you can do with it saving all that money a new one would cost you. you can make it look brand new again and make it haul ass. personally i would keep it, but the decission will be up to you,
