Hi Escargot

Of course we have the same Rv you have and while i am looking to get a new rv, I keep telling myself that it does the job nicely and looks great(PW quality). So I understand how the OP feels about selling their Agile.

I regret marrying my first wife! :)

I've had sellers remorse for 35 plus years. I never sell junk I always sell great vehicles, RV's that I have owned, well maybe my truck camper, it was too tight.

I'm sitting here thinking I miss every one I have ever sold. BUT, the reality is every time I sell something I get something new, and round and round I go.
The great thing about selling is you are always able to buy something else down the road.

The one thing I'm about to experience is the memories of vehicles as it pertains to the fun that was had when my daughter was in the vehicle, when she goes off to school, and those times. That is going to kill me.

I thinking right now of her as a six year old standing in the vehicle I still have and seeing her look around the new vehicle. Now she's 17 and I have the same vehicle - full of memories.

I never understood why and old couple in their 80's kept a 70's VW parked in their back yard never wanting to sell it to me, as it was their full grown married daughters car, now I understand all too well.

In our situation it was the opposite. We lived and traveled in larger RV's from 1986 to 2005. It was work related and we didn't have a house to maintain. My company had me moving 2-3 times a year depending on the job. Salary, mileage and Per Diem and we loved it. We visited all the lower 48 in those years.

the exception explains the rule.

Besides....I'd have to give him the truck to tow it and THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN :B

Regret selling my 1968 Triumph TR-250 roadster. Made only one year. The first year they put a six cylinder engine in the TR-4 instead of the four. 1969, the New TR-6. Probably couldn't get in one now. lol
