    So what would a 1967 GMC Crackerbox, 238, 5 sp, 2 speed axle would be worth? She's been in the weeds for a while, no need for a/c as she's full of holes, but ran 12 years ago, pre-emission!!!! $60,000?

    Try it. You don’t have anything to lose at this point. Just be sure you really want to sell it before you list it. Might have folks pounding down your door lol.

    I was referring to people who already had one ordered and will be taking delivery and then deciding whether or not to resell it. For how much and at what point is the extra money worth it or not worth it.

    Trailer places did. They are asking 110-120K for right now delivery. Sucks too, I would love to order a new trailer. Ill just end up getting an old one for 20K, and maybe drop a new c-600 on it to make up for the heat gain of an old trailer.

    Its called hyperinflation. The cool part is all the billionaires are now poorer since the USD buys less.

    America could very well be doomed, especially if they keep spending like they have been.

    It's not hyperinflation, yet.
