my friend wants to get his winter beater truck painted as cheap as possible. how much would maaco charge to paint a truck.

300 probably with a coupon. look for mailers.

I had my '89 Camaro painted they did tons of body work including replacing a door skin, painted and clear coat for $600

I dunno, how come I hear everyone says never get a maaco paint job cuz they suck so bad. I know 3 guys down here that got the $800 dollar paint job with the warranty and everything. One friend got his car painted black, it looks good and it's lasted for 3 years now. My other friend just got his avenger painted and it's held up good for almost a year now? It looks like they do a pretty good job.

Before I got my 'maro, I had a '89 Blazer. I had it painted at Maaco and within about 2 or 3 years, the paint started peelin around the hood and doors. Maybe your friends and you actually found a good Maaco. Maybe everyone else had an experience like mine.

these are my words about Maaco STAY AWAY FROM MACO. I paid 600 for my paint job... Metallic black . I ENDED UP TAKING IT BACK FOR WARRANTY 4 TIMES... the last time i made them repaint the WHOLE car and i know they did iit cuz i made them show it to me primerd..... AND MAKE SURE U MAKE THEM SHOW IT TO U PRIMERED!!!! CUZ THEY WILL NOT DO IT EVEN IF YOU PAY!!!!
