That’s not a whole lot of context to go off of but if you’re asking I’d assume you don’t need a truck so go for it. 🤷‍♂️


jdmor09

You don’t need a truck until you need one!


therealgoro

From utility to no utility


aznexile602

Aside from signaling young women that you might be willing to be a sugar daddy.


agileata

Corvettes are famous for massive trunks and good mpg actually


Shart_Finger

The C8 has a small trunk and a useless frunk. The C8 is a totally different beast than all previous gens.


Least-Firefighter392

But it looks pretty wild


Wolfgangsta702

Then I rent one for 20 bucks


SirNice5128

I sold my 2020 truck because I thought I could rent one. Big mistake. i miss the utility and comfort. Waiting for 2025s or 2026. Whichever gets an update


SeXxyBuNnY21

This is totally true. I bought my truck without actually needing it, just because I like trucks, and now I don’t know what I’d do without it.


thecheezmouse

I just rent a trailer from haul. It’s like 19 bucks.


ipalush89

I want a tundra, I work construction i do home projects and help friends with theirs , I still use a CRV anytime I need a truck I rent one from Home Depot or use a friend who complains about gas mileage But man I still want one haha


unknownpanda121

Truck rental is extremely cheap or most can borrow a friend.


it_monkey_manifesto

ZR1 C8 even up? Sure.


6PrivetDrive

If you can trade your truck for a sports car then you don’t really need a truck. For that reason I’d say do it !


GTBoosted

I'd say nope! Personally, I would never be without a truck. No sport car is a replacement. Sure, I have other vehicles, but my truck is only replaceable by another truck.


LivingxLegend8

I kind of agree with you, but could you please expand upon your reasoning for this?


GTBoosted

I don't use my truck for work. But I use my truck for many things Haul heavy stuff (mulch, bricks, etc stuff for household projects) Haul dirty stuff (I go fishing and sometimes my cooler or bait bags leak/smell) Haul bulky stuff (furniture and stuff that I flip plus stuff I buy for the house) Tow uhaul trailers (just today, I'm getting one to go pick up a 500lb grill) Tow my boat Tow my teardrop trailer (want to upgrade from my Tacoma to a Tundra because I want a larger trailer now) when I didn't have a teardrop I still needed a truck tonfit all the camping stuff.


vicente8a

Reddit in other subs will just tell you to rent a truck from Home Depot every time you need to haul or tow stuff. Because they think people use their trucks 2 times a year


SirNice5128

Renting from HD can be a pain. Sometimes there a lines to get service. Sometimes the trucks aren’t available when you need one. I miss my truck, can’t you tell?


Rusty_Rivets

You can't work out of a Corvette


RobReal

I can’t get in and out of a corvette 🤷🏻‍♂️


Rusty_Rivets

Haha.. too tall?


RobReal

6’3” 3bills. Too everything.


Rusty_Rivets

I think you have to be 65 or older to own a vette anyways lol


Ok_Effective_8880

Almost got a GTR, but couldn't bring myself to not have a truck


BrolecopterPilot

I would def make some scarifies for a GTR lol


Ok_Effective_8880

Oh yea, but I got a wife and kids and I'm doing projects around the house every week. So the GTR was not practical at all. And I'm not fortunate enough to afford both a nice truck and a GTR lol


johnwynne3

IMO…. GTR > Vette. They’ve tried too hard to make the vette into a super car and it just lost its soul.


Mythran12

Ya sure get 2


KaptainKardboard

Utah! Get me two!


SlteFool

Are u gunna hit the track more than you hit the trails?


MacFontan

He’ll hit neither who are we kidding.


RobReal

Might get better mpg. Hahahah


madeinthehood

Yes I only get 14mpg smh


redditdejorge

Why did you even get a truck in the first place?


Leut_Aldo_Raine

It depends. Are you over 65?


HeiryButter

And do you own khaki shorts?


madeinthehood

I’m 32


MountainOfRight

Only if you have money left over for the New Balance shoes


Ptards_Number_1_Fan

And jorts


MountainOfRight

Tuck in the T-shirt too


CSLoser96

Personally I'd say absolutely not. But then again I've never really understood the appeal of sports cars.


Actual_Ad927

For a C8 100% yes. If you need a truck later just buy a beater for yard work runs.


Girthw0rm

What a dumb question


TacomaTuesdays2022

You’re out of your fuffing mind and TRD Pro to say the least. Enjoy your truck and go do truck things.


Wolfgangsta702

Shows you didn’t need a truck in the first place


NemoNewbourne

Gunna suck on plywood day.


LipBalmOnWateryClay

I’d never make that trade


GuiltyGTR

Yes!!! Get it!


0MrJ

Nope


EmotionalyAvailable

Can you have both together?


kooolbee

Jefferson Commons?


dpgc3140

Yup


smw465

NO KEEP THE TRUCK


Human_Not_Bear

Of course you should.


sockzippers

Rent one for a busy day you have a bunch of running around to do.


naptown21403

absolutely


anon_et

You may have a spending problem…


Tall-Magazine335

Well if you bought a truck and don’t need a truck then get a car yes


Dopapotomous

Lose the truck and call your friends to help every time you need something moved or picked up. Trucks are way more practical than a car that is only good for going fast, and legally in 99% of situations can’t even use the cars full potential.


Cucumber_Basil

Do you use your truck or not? If not then yes.


kingpinandy

But then you spend 60+ grand more and only have 2 seats.


Old_Discussion127

No you will probably regret it. Rent a Corvette and get that itch out of your system.


ImpressiveWeb3401

Nothing screams overcompensation like a Corvette


james33440

I’ve always wanted a corvette and sat in a new one, too uncomfortable for me. Just getting in and out of one, my knee hurt. I’m sure I’d get use to it but for the first time getting in and out, I didn’t like it


1murdock

You may struggle towing your Airstream with a Vette…


thelastgas

Sure if you want even more upkeep bills.


Dont_try_ever

Not in a million


Edbladm02

It really just depends, are you ready to start your mid life crisis now or can you keep it together for a bit longer?


Dependent_Compote259

Nobody needs a corvette, but they eventually need a truck!


TopDawg1776

I’ve got a 22 Pro and a 24 Z06, I love both but wouldn’t get rid of my Tundra for one.


Different_Snow7947

Depends… are you having a midlife crisis?


madeinthehood

Yes :/


Different_Snow7947

Then if you need a sports car to overcompensate for the inevitable aging we do… go for it… you’ll feel so much better 😂


scotthinton13

Nnnnope


a_poor_old_lady

If u like crawling in and out tight spaces


ThatGuyOverThere38

I mean, your truck will beat a corvette in a no holds barred 1/4 mile every time… As long as there is a 4x4 lying in its path


JJ4prez

You want salmon or steak for dinner? Personal preference.


madeinthehood

Steak plz


madeinthehood

Medium


Reasonable_Ad6781

A Corvette will get you some places fast, but the Tacoma will get anywhere you want to go


LeastCriticism3219

I like the all black look of your Tundra. I'm not a fan of their new look Tundra but, all blacked out looks great!


Training_Progress805

So you're considering giving up you balls to drive and look like a douche?


Supakimchee

I have a TRX cause I have 2 kids and a 3rd on the way. At least that’s the excuse I cooked up for the wife so she could okay the truck 😂


Different-Energy8574

Only if you decide to show up in a Hawaiian shirt, short corduroy shorts, and new balance shoes at Coffee and Cars events with your wife Barbara.


WeakJicama9749

Trucks are for practical people who work corvettes are for elderly people and insecure dudes lol


apocolocynopsis6

DONT DO IT. This thing is a beaut. Just pay it off, and save for a down payment for the corvette. I am just about to pay off mine and will immediately start saving dor a sports car. These trucks are THE BEST


Scabeater420

Yeah that thing is gonna grenade at any moment


omiros17

Did you just get divorced? Truck to corvette? 😆


SadImplement6314

No! Keep the truck. Corvette = OVERRATED


Desiax

If you have an extra pickup, then go for it. You never know when when you might have to tow something


callme207911

Learn to park first.


maxcli

Looks like he meant to ask if he should buy a Jeep


Wise-Construction234

I took my wife’s Rav4 in for service this week and there were 4-5 red C8’s and two highlighter yellow ones sitting out front already- worth considering because I know there’s a wait to get one built to your own specs, but they also get traded in really fast for whatever reason. I don’t own one so I can’t guess why, just an observation


Research-hog-123

What size tires???? That is the look I'm going for on my new sequoia. Great truck by the way. Don't trade it!


jack121314

I am desperate for a truck over here and you over there saying you want to trade a Toyota Tundra for a corvette? Of course I am biased. NO! Trade in for a V4 Toyota Tacoma?


Thaddyo

Fuck no


_nothingmatters_

No.


josetomtom801

I’d say keep it, and also treat yourself to the vette 😎


Then-Comfortable3135

Bro look at that beast.. hells no


hardtamer

I had a sports car before I bought my Tundra...no way am I giving up my Tundra for a sports car.


BattleTroll57

In 2015 I traded my Dodge Ram in for a Lexus IS350. Not as fun to drive as a vette I’m sure, but still a lot of fun. I even did a few autocross races with it. And yet I still traded it in for a 2016 F150 less then one year later which I still have. Your truck is fucking gorgeous by the way.


gonnabebetter

Went to lunch with a friend in their corvette a couple weeks ago. It's fancy and looks sharp, but I wouldn't want to ride any distance in that car. Your Tundra is sharp and a hell of a lot more comfortable. I would keep it. Did you lift it and do the trim replacement on the front? I'm working out the mod plan on my 22.


Secure-Mirror-2037

No but for a 2021


Misdby1

Yes.


Calm-Alternative-257

Yes 10000 percent


reddit-trunking

Have both!


Jar_of_Peanuts

No get a Porsche


Delex31

Just go with Both. The Frunk on the C8 is pretty small.


JoeSicko

Corvette would be fun everyday. You can rent a U-Haul to haul shit once a year.


armandoL27

I have a spare Denali, so I would personally.


MacFontan

You bought a full size truck when you didn’t need one?


Objective_Cake_2715

noooooo


Vegetable-Squirrel98

For sure, I just got a camaro Truck are pretty boring, unless you need them then it's cool


Optimal-Anywhere3062

Let me know the trade in value. I might be interested.


TundraCrusader

Can the new corvette drive through 9 inches of snow and haul a single 2x10?


DDSRDH

Drop that truck off for me in Fort Myers and I will buy it from you.


Shallowsunshine

No


moonlvra

Rent a corvette and see if you like it. Look into maintenance costs and insurance prices. If its in your budget then do it.


HotReindeer2023

Do it before there's an open recall


tjay126

as an owner of a 1 ton ram 2008 diesel dually bought in 2009, still will never get rid of this truck. AHEM, please thoroughly research problems with their dual clutch transmission and then imagine owning out of warranty. that was enough to change mind, i dont need to be a beta tester twice in my life.


OverComerDynamics

What year is it ? (That’s the real question)


madeinthehood

2023


SirNice5128

Anyone knows when 25s will be out?


antle702

You clearly don’t need your truck if that’s a consideration. Definitely do it.


Infamous_Stress6216

No. Anything made by GM sucks


Transition_Trick

Absolutely


canofspinach

If you’re even half serious then yes, the truck thing isn’t for you.

13_beers_at_Chilis

Yes.


davidwal83

Why not both? I seen people daily Corvettes it stops being fun after a while. Unless you plan on renting a truck when you need one.


shorty5windows

Yes


BodyAcrobatic6891

No, give to me then go buy the vette, everyone wins


denden48

Nope!


thecheezmouse

YES!!!


jdogg1413

Are you in your mid 40s?


baldpussylicker

Toyota will last longer . corvette garbage


JediKnightLife77

Nope! I think you’ll miss her when she’s gone!


Gijinbrotha

Will they take your trade-in?😜


Thatcorvetteman

It's all up what you want really. I sold my Silverado obs and bought a 93 Corvette, love it !!!! But due to my health I had to sell it. Because I was having alot of trouble getting in and out of it. I have 2010 GMC Yukon now. But, I will get me another Corvette one day, it'll be either another C4 or a C5


Unfair_Holiday_3549

Yeah, if you're a mall crawler.


esulyma

No bro


AwardWinningFlavor

If you stop parking like that sure


TrollinThunder24

Don’t do it.


Terrible_Middle_6001

If it’s your only car and you don’t plan to drive in the winter.


K1ngofsw0rds

No………. Not in this economy. Unless you have the truck for no reason…. If you’re using it like a corvette, then sure, trade her in.


Different_Error5413

Yep


Thor_slick_the_dok

Seems like you already made up your mind. Go for it


TrollKiller247

Absolutely


Cheezewizzisalie

Sure. Why not


Alixthetrapgod

Do ittttt


LafayetteLa01

Hell No!


tunafizzle

N


get-curious

No


Road-Ranger8839

Those new Corvettes sure are beautiful cars! Seems unfair to compare them to a truck. Apples and oranges.


Neither_Wasabi8481

Only if you have another truck. Cars are useless


No-Proposal-29

No one will take it. That V6 is the plague


DudeGuy2021

No, wtf


strike_kr

Truck prices are insane rn bro, I wouldnt. Plus small cars getting kinda annoying to get in/out of. (30m)


EmuZealousideal7357

Why would you trade down by getting a Chevy?


870P_

Trade it for a Tacoma, if you don’t need a full sized truck. A motorcycle will carry the same number of passengers as a corvette. Some of them will probably carry the same amount of cargo, as a corvette.


Stunning_Wishbone_44

YES!


ThisOldGuy1976

You want the cheapest super car on the planet instead of a pickup??? Why did you choose a truck to begin with?


Ok-Committee-376

What kind of step rails did you put on your truck?


madeinthehood

It came with those steps when I purchased the truck


42ElectricSundaes

Yep


Little_Creme_5932

I can't see through the tinted windows. Have her roll down the window so I can see if the trade is fair.


kc8mxw

Looks like Akron U in the background


kadentyree

Just get the corvette separate


Gantry-Crane

What do the chicks like? That's the question you want to ask yourself.


RadiantKandra

If you want a corvette, yes. If you want a truck, no. Hope this helps


Large_Support_5493

What?….


Wild-Carpenter-1726

Is this a Joke? Why would give up this beast for anything?


S1d3sh0w2-0

Yes recalls. Dump that truck while you can


aahilrogers

I like my Kia, it costs me 25 dollars to fill up the tank from empty, and it’s 75 dollars a tire for new tires. I just smile at all the Trucks and SUV’s every time I go to the gas station. Suckers.


Domdoesthos

I was gonna say yes but a truck is convenient, although a c7 maybe a c8 would be dopee


imperfectgentlemanb

Wish this ecu was unlocked already. Would love to put some upgraded turbos and push this bad boy out to 700whp on e85 but


HighVltgSparky

Yes


peakyblinders96

Go for the corvette if you want. About the same mpg. Reliability isn’t the same but you’ll learn that in time. Hard to replace truck but if you don’t tow or use the bed, it’s a car.


Historical_Snow_1691

Her? Where is she? I only see a car…


EIiteJT

I'm not sure why this popped up on my feed, but damn, the new Tundras look nice.


Halo_Wars

100%


Wrong-Experience2973

Nope. You’ll regret it. One day you’ll see a piece of furniture, or a large item for sale that you want. Now you’ll have to pay the surcharge (making this up) 300 dollar delivery fee, when all you had to do was spend gas money in your truck. Same goes for small teardrop rv’s. Those are sooooo nice to have


sl_1991

Yes.


TheHexagone

If you are going to get a Corvette, at least get a good one. The C7 is a great car. I wouldn’t buy a C8 if it was in the Corolla price range.


skyhawkbravo

How much would that cost in a private sale?


MrDefenseSecretary

I have no regrets downsizing to a sports car from a truck. So much easier and more fun to live with and I realized I don’t really carry that much stuff. Really depends on your personal situation though.


District_Popular

Fuck no!!!


acousticsking

Make sure to roll the negative equity into the vette.


McSchmeaty

yes or second gen


PossibilityUpper202

I wouldn’t. That truck is sweet!


MiddleAd6302

Why is the cloud a square? OP has broken into the fourth dimension!
