Now come on Dave... you know those are just relics from a time somewhere in the past when I actually had an income and even a few dollars leftover in my pocket after taxes. Now they are just large paperweights taking up valuable space in my garage. When you can't afford insurance, excise tax & fuel... all they do is sit there and take up space.DavesTractor said:Just take the Vette out for a spin, or maybe the Harley. Poor fella......![]()

In a sense, they make me feel even poorer than I probably am.![]()

Well, the truth be known, they will probably both need to be sold off early next spring to reduce debt and to clear the garage for a second working machine. Neither has been used in years. It really is sad. They deserve to be driven and enjoyed by someone even if it can't be me. Right now, I view them as mere invesments that will have to be turned into cash so that I can survive my second laid-off/semi-retired year.bindian said:Hey Dougster, I got room on my trailer for the Vette and Harley. Want me to come up and relieve you of all that garage space so you can park that second tractor?Does the Vette have a trailer hitch to trailer the Harley back to Texas?
That way I could fly up.

Personal finances and seasonal issues will most likely dictate when they are to be sold... but yes, it would be nice to deny our corrupt new socialist governor a few dollars worth of sales tax money.Keith_B said:You may have to wait until you move to New Hampshire to sell them, otherwise the bulk of the proceeds will go to Taxachusetts to spend as the liberals see fit.
I certainly do remember the Chevette! Heck, I am old enough to remember driving around in a Nash Metropolitan (the *original* sub-compact car)!!!Ductape said:Corvette AND a Harley??? And i thought with you being dirt poor and all, your 'Vette would be a Chevette (anyone remember those??) ! Dougster.... me thinks you aren't so dirt poor afterall! (maybe!).
