A slammed 240 looks like exactly what kind of vehicle goes in that garage.

That's not always the case depreciating that fast. It's usually the normal amount of a car honestly. My dad has had his for 7 years and maybe has dropped about 10k in actual value.

He's trying to get rid of his if you know anyone interested. $40k and it's yours.

Well mine has actually gone up in value because I bought it in the fall from a distressed seller. It would have gone up in value even further if I didn't miss a bunch of things and have to spend thousands repairing it but whatever. Anyway, $40K? Is it s a cummins 350 diesel pusher? What make/model/year/slides? I probably won't buy it but I'm curious nonetheless.

Yeah those are usually called toy haulers. Most of the time they only fit motorcycles/ATV's. Which is fun, but I want the car AND the ATV's ;)

Mark it's a 2005 Ford Thor Winds Fiesta with the V10. It only has 5200 miles. Double bumpout on both sides. We made one trip to Bristol, TN for racing with it and just took it to Maple Grove for racing on the weekends. Perfect condition.

Nah, I'd be after one of the better made class A cummins diesels with allison trans. I mean mine is known as a well made unit and to be honest, it's a real piece of ****. At least half of that stems from the Ford chassis. I know the V10 is (a lot) better but I'm not going to bet my next rig on it.

I think today is where I stop giving a **** about things.

ImNickjames13 02-15-2012 09:55 PM

^meh. Its Wednesday. At least we're over the hump, with about an 2 hours left of work today I decided I was done being productive.

russiankid 02-15-2012 10:21 PM

I usually don't give a **** at the end of Tuesday. Wednesday is one of those days where people start to make weekend plans, and I end up looking forward to the weekend.

Today is my friday. Thank God. I can't wait for this weekend.

HickRocket1258 02-16-2012 09:25 AM

Wish today was my Friday. I'm considering taking a day off one of these days, but I usually don't until April.

How long would you all say a car would have to sit on a lot for until the dealership gets desperate to move it. A used one. I never have bought from a dealer before.

i'd say 60-90 days before they move it to auction.

Morning all! Got called for a Job interview on Monday for another transportation job. Excited but torn on whether or not to leave my current job and go full time there. Decisions Decisions.

How is everyone?

I think I have to move to the desert because I'm starting to really hate the general population of idiots. I don't know why every single person on the road gets offended by being passed (on a 4 lane road). Dude you're doing 3 under the speed limit in the left lane. Why are you shocked and WHY are you mad?!
