Well, that really depends on the scenario. I'm going to drive it for a bit, but I'll sell it if someone wants to buy it.

The real idea behind it is so that I can take Cara off the road, drive the Taco, and put the diesel engine in Cara at leisure, without being rushed to do everything all at once, and possibly screw something up. It's the first part of the project, honestly.

Once Cara is done, and road legal and all again, if someone wants to buy the Taco for $1000 or so, I'll sell it, then go buy another truck for $200 - $400 and fix it up, do the same thing.

I guess I don't really intentionally buy vehicles to sell them, but if it ends up that way, it won't bother me.
