Re: Don't Ruin The Value Of Classic Trucks

I Love my truck. . . I paid $1800 for it nine years ago, I've driven it daily about 150,000 miles. Just spent about $5000 on a new engine, and plan on putting 200,000 more on it. What is it worth, don't know, don't care! It doesn't owe me a thing, I could dig a hole in the back yard and shove her in it, and smile while I cover it up.

Had I bought a new truck nine years ago, I would have lost more in depreciation than I've ever spent on it. PLUS I wouldn't have had a great time hanging out with folks like You! Who wants to talk about a 2001 truck? YUK!
