Is my TC becoming a White Elephant...?
Not sure if I should sell it or keep it.
It is fully paid for as is the truck. But, I have only used it once last year when I went hunting and it looks as if that will be the only time I use it this year as well. I am able to store it on my own land without restrictions so storage is not an issue. I might have used it twice in the previous year.
It is in great shape- I bought it in brand new, never used condition as a bank repo in the spring of 2010. I got it for a great price and because of this bargain is a main reason why I tend to want to keep it. I could not replace it for the low price paid.
My priorities have changes since purchasing a house some 3 years ago. It is a fixer-upper and because of this, the TC stays off the truck so as to make Home Depot runs. Heck- I can camp better than most folks on my deck looking up at the shooting stars with the sounds of the river behind my house... and can often wake up to see bear and moose in my yard all from the safety of the deck! Why head out in the woods when I live within it.
The TC sure is luxuriously handy when I do use it for hunting, but camping is no longer a priority. If I paid closer to what I should have paid for it I 'prolly would have already sold it (perhaps because of some warped reasoning of trying to recoup any money paid for it.)
I like TC's. This one is my 4th one. I keep it is good shape and maintained and have made some significant improvements to it. The only time I do not like having it is when I need to sweep snow off if it.. which is several dozens of time in winter.
I would probably miss it right away should I sell it...
