A person willing to spend a little bit a money on something is more willing to put something into it. Wether thats some love, money, or simply drive it.
Thats the reason I spent what I spent on it... $3500.
Interesting theory....I have always found that when someone pays $1500 for one of these trucks....they do nothing with it, then they try to sell it for $3000
