[QUOTE="kawie95, post: 579345, member: 4756"] I have had my truck since November of 2011 and love it. I have put 29k miles on her and have been to the Grand Canyon, Eureka, Baja, Salton Sea, Mojave, Sequoia, Bishop, Big Bear, and lots of other places. Its really made me enjoy driving, especially on cold mornings with remote start. I get a smile coming out of the store and seeing my truck, forgetting I am so lucky to have such a nice vehicle. Its reliable, roomy, but has a few cons. Gas MPG. 10.7 mpg costs a ton to drive around. $100 barley lasts me a week, even if I just drive between LA and Santa Monica once a week and locally around town all week. Just seems to go quick. Payments- They are $650 for 7 years. I still owe $32k and bought it for $62k from Ken Grody. Insurance is about $120/mo and DMV in CA charges $550/yr for the renewal. Its about ~$1,000/mo to own this truck. I made some bad decisions to put $15k into it with mods. I think I could sell it for $50k? Not sure, it has a lot of good mods and pretty much new BFG Project 37" tires. Few paint scratches from brush so its for offroad use. I still have the OEM tires, so I could put those on and keep the BFGs for a few years until my next Raptor. If I did sell it, I would have to buy a new truck and it would probably need maintenance costs, etc. Then in a few years, I would buy a raptor again. Slight chance next June I will be able to afford the extra costs, but this truck is still expensive. Anyways, should I battle it out and keep hanging on or cut my losses ($15k mods, $30k loan payments/down payment, $500 renewal). I would like to buy another one in a few years, at least before I get too old :wink: [/QUOTE]
