[QUOTE="badm0t0rfinger, post: 1005135, member: 16630"] As a guy who grew up a son of a car collector, I still cannot fathom why one would want to buy a car, let it sit in a warehouse, look at it and imagine driving over potential resale value. My dad owns a 2005 Ford GT, it has maybe 8000 miles on it, [I]at least it did last time I joy rode it[/I], and he never drives the thing because he is worried about resale value. He could have had 80K miles on it and it still would have went up in value. I get buying expensive or rare cars, but not using them in the hopes that you can sell them in the future blows my mind. As for the Raptor, the last 3 times I've been at the dealership for a service they ask me what it would take to get me out of the Raptor and into a 2016 or 2017 F150. They've basically offered me 55K+ each time. Still have a hard time taking it, but if they are offering me 55k I have to wonder what they intend on selling it for. [/QUOTE]
