AI can only plagiarise, so if we delete the Terminator franchise for good we have nothing to worry about.
I mean let’s face it, it hasn’t done anything not-bad since 1991 …

covid fried people's brains. it's why we're still seeing inflation. 8 cylinder cars are hard to shift right now, due mostly to high fuel prices, but also the shift toward cabs & 4WD utes by tradesmen.
A lot of tradesmen hate their dual cab Utes with no load space they had in a conventional Holden and Falcon Ute!

Me, I don't believe something so new is worth more than the original retail price.....Others will say I'm full of shite,
"You're paying 20k more than they were brand new" is what I told my mate who paid 80k for a Redline wagon. Same with the guy I bought my Redline Ute from, wanted the new car price he paid for it. I ended up getting him down to 7k under new car price despite the Ute had 3,300km's and never been driven on a wet road, there's no way I'd pay new car price for a second hand one!

And a lot of tradies would be pissed off if forced to ride in the back seats for any distance.

So what part of my quote am I full of shite?

Prices will always head North, or the other excuses bought up when the topic is bought up or the part where I said if someone has money burning a hole in their pocket they'll pay more than the original sale price, so I say good on them?

Just that the value of a thing is what people will pay for it; so something can be worth more than when it was new, if more than one person with the ability to pay it is willing to pay it.

And I did mention if someone does, good on them....

"Quote" .....If someone has money burning a hole in their pocket and they want to cough up more than original sale price, good on them.. ..."Unquote..

I think crew cab utes are a useless vehicle and you couldn't fit a new broom stick in the back of them. There's more load space in a SUV with the seat down and for towing, I'd prefer one of the larger 4WD SUV's. The Silverado and Ram have decent load space, but they're a big vehicle to maneuver around, park and fit in the shed etc.

Nothing, I agree with you. Seems it's you with a comprehension deficiency or you're here looking for an argument, doesn't it?

Far from it.....Just having the portion of my quote to do with speaking shite pricked my ears up....

And I did read you saying you suggesting to your mate he was overpaying for the wagon and you also saying you'll never pay new price for a 2nd handie....That says to me you do agree with my thought process in this area
