 hey yea I am going to start a ork army soon and I need help on what to use I want it to be VERY in character with lots of vehicles but also I'd like it to be quite a hefty swarm. I was thinking having a Big mek to lead 3 squads of 15 trukk boys, a battlewagon and something else I'm not sure yet

KoS notoriously does not have a very "swarmy" army, but I'm sure you could work around it.  Just load up on orky vehicles.
For cheap IG, Space Wolves, Dark Eldar and a WHFB Rulebook, check out the Trading Post.  I'm interested in buying/trading for: Eldar, 'Nids and Blood Angels.

you can't put that many boyz in a trukk... I used to have a speed freaks army, and I only ever used 2 units of trukk boyz and a unit of 'ard boyz in a trukk. Get a bike squad and fill up the rest with wartrakks/warbuggies.

     1 Trukk @ [40] Pts;Rokkit Launcha (x1);#Grot Riggers;Red Paint Job

1 Deth Kopta Squadron (Fast Attack) @ 55 Pts;Mek Pilot;Twin Linked Big Shoota;Kustom Force Field

1 Leman Russ Demolisher (Heavy Support) @ 175 Pts;Demolisher Cannon; Heavy Bolter;#Grot Riggers;Turbo Boosta;Red Paint Job

1 Guntrukk (Heavy Support) @ 82 Pts;Zzap Gun;Rokkit Launcha (x1);#Grot Riggers;Force Field

1 Guntrukk (Heavy Support) @ 82 Pts;Zzap Gun;Rokkit Launcha (x1);#Grot Riggers;Force Field

Models in Army: 83

Total Army Cost: 1850

You could prolly drop the Guntrukks and Deth Kopta and take another 'ard Boyz mob, but I don't think you really want to do that. ;)
Shouts of 'Waaarrgh, da Orks!' and ' 'Ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go' can often be heard at tournaments, particularly when an Ork player is doing well, but also as a sort of general rallying cry for the entire hobby. (The Imperial battle cry "Kill the mutants. Burn the heretics. Purge the unclean" does not seem to have the same appeal.)
