- old_guyExploreryes but this is a poor comparison. my house is 30 years old and my truck is only a few years younger LOL
- n7bsnExplorerWell, yes, but I built the house 35 years ago.
Current value, not a chance. - fla-gypsyExplorerNo, in fact my truck cost less than some folks cars.
- Lady_FitzgeraldExplorerI live in an older mobile home so yeah, my much newer truck cost more.
- Fire_InstructorExplorerYes. House price (1979) was $25,500.... Put more than that as a down payment with my trade, and cash on current truck.....
- cdlaineExplorerNo... but, I bought my truck in 2003. :C
Just read an article where the new fully loaded 2500HD/3500 series
of each flavor , (depending on trim levels), MSRP from $60,000.00 - $70,000.00.
(wait for it ... "nobody pays MSRP"...there, said it
before the usual suspects). It has now surpassed the point of
"justifiable". As such, my goal, milk my truck along until the
20 year point, and then, re-evaluate my love affair with towing
heavy RV's quickly up the mountain grade.
As I move closer and closer to "real" retirement the latest / greatest
Ram/Ford/Chevy moves to the point of being made with unobtainminium.
It is really hard to expect the Princess to watch the expenses when I'm eye-balling
a $70k truck. :S
ps...I thought 40k was too much 03'...silly boy.
Charles - broark01ExplorerNo, not even close but it did cost more than my first house in the 1980's at around $65k... Scary thought.
- Tax_ManExplorerNo, current truck was only 23K. Looked at a new truck and then financing. I don't want another house payment. 700 - 800 monthly.
- Crazy_RayExplorerNO. NAC
- notevenExplorer IIIOur printing press money buys less than it used to...
