    I would have to guess that a Pete would hold it's value the best.

    A pickup truck? I know I can't even get a 5 year old one for the price I'm paying for my tractor, and a new one costs as much as my truck and trailer notes combined.

    Oh, you meant big trucks? Hmmm, non EGR 379 or W900?

    Since so much technology has changed in those years, is that "research" even "valuable" information anymore?

    At least I made it on page #1

    I have a feeling of how this will end.

    I'm guessing it's going to be something out of left field that nobody is thinking of, myself included. I will stay tuned...

    The one that you want to buy!

    Because it does not depreciate, you can not afford to buy it.
