[QUOTE="K9 HAULR, post: 1646929, member: 26856"] I keep going back and forth. We have a home in Tahoe and one up in Northern CA. The Tahoe place (our main home) doesn't have much room for vehicle storage, so the truck has been sitting up in CA. Our CA place is on 17 acres, and the pickup bed has been useful, but not as much over the last 2 years. Realistically, the truck was originally purchased as a day driver and to haul 4-5 kids on the HS ski team back and forth to practices/races. It did amazing well for that. Now that my kid is off to college, I mainly use a newer SUV for my driving needs when I'm hauling my BIG pups around (not a fan of driving much more than 10-15 minutes with the dogs in the bed). The SUV and my old 1974 Land Cruiser take care of my off road and winter storm/snow needs. Honestly, hadn't really thought much about selling the Raptor until I got the offer. I figured it was paid for and I'd run it into the ground. Now I'm seriously on the fence. If I do sell, I probably won't get another. They are VERY cool trucks, but not sure the cool factor would justify getting another if I don't really NEED the bed for hauling stuff. [/QUOTE]
