For the past 5 years or so, I've only been buying vehicles a year or two old to save that initial hit. I guess my cheapness has finally surpassed my need to have vehicles when they first come out. Maybe this means I'm finally growing up!
Of course, I have no expectations that this will hold it's value anywhere near as well as my FJ, but at least I've skipped the initial hit.
lol, this car has taught me to only buy used This is my first and last new car. You are a wise one, my friend.
