You paid what??
has anyone come across this ordeal.....when you show up with your latest acquisition and the first thing asked is "what did THAT cost you".....this is the question I was asked recently when I arrived at the inlaws house.....I should have said "less than a lease down payment on a brand new 4x4"....or "less than the 15 year old rust bucket of a fox body furd you just bought"
has anyone else come across these people who think people who drive classics like us.....must be hard off to have to drive such an OLD vehicle? What is wrong with people.....don't they understand that my 36 year old truck has already lasted 4 times longer than their honda ever will......and while they dump money into their daily drivers just to keep them on the road...while losing resale value....every repair/upgrade/modification on my truck is likely to increase my resale value......ahh....i feel better.....
