      No, they are more affordable. The most I have ever put into a used car is about $12000. That was the purchase price, plus repairs, and some paint work. I had it for 11 years before selling it for $3800. Where does your new car get 11 years for $8000 in repairs and maintenance; it doesn’t. Used never makes sense to buy.

      Small picture here is that many people are eyeballing to steal it.

      So fuckit, might as well let the truck get stolen, it’s not even that hard to crank.

      Thanks for the advice…
