Well, a lot of 12+ year old cars look just that. That's the beauty of a good design. Timeless. People (usually girls and others who aren't into cars) are always shocked when I tell them that mine is from 2001.
I get that alot! Usually dudes or girls that don't know much about trucks...but they rarely believe that the truck is a 98!
That being said, I say buy what you want! I've never been the kind of guy that cared what people think. For as long as I could remember....my buddies were smoking weed, getting drunk, stealing things, and generally acting totally different just so they could fit in with the crowd. I couldn't care less. I was never the coolest guy in school, wasn't a jock, wasn't a brain either....but I had friends, and was happy being who I was. My 1st car was a 89 Chev Celebrity.....and I LOVED IT! All my buddies would laugh at it, but they either drove cars that daddy paid money to buy them, or had no wheels at all! lol!
There's douche bags everywhere, at the end of day, a vehicle is only a vehicle, it doesn't define you.
You want to meet girls, you need only a few things going for you (as previously stated):
Decent looks (groom yourself....you don't need to look like Brad Pitt)
Funny ( or at least have a good sense of humour)
Don't dress like a slob (no need for high dollar threads either)
Be nice! (girls HATE douche bags)
At the end of the day, the right girl will see these qualities in you, and not care about what you drive, what job you have, or where you live!
