Can't afford baseplates because I spend all my money on meth.

I prefer a loose truck because i love the feel of it when doing stuff like crooks and smiths and what not because the truck pivots like it would on a full size board, feel more realistic and looks nicer in my opinion.

Medium - loose. I can deal with either.

It depends what feels best to you, personally I ride pretty soft/loose trucks. I find that it helps with turning and riding out of tricks essier and looks a little more realistic.

I like to ride with my back truck a little bit more loose than my front. I'd say my back truck is medium loose, while my front truck is more toward medium.

I really prefer loose-medium.
My TD Xpert Sk8 trucks felt amazing, but I lost them.
Unfortunately I'm using regular TD trucks and there's no choice but to ride tight.
I absolutely hate it.
