I could potentially sell the;
Fiesta
Ranger (off insurance and tags now)
1989 Suzuki GS 500E (off insurance and tags now)
This would easily net me over $10-11K, which could be used for increasing my cash reserves or finishing the trike, even possibly purchasing another vehicle in the future.
As I have spent money on the tadpole project my vehicle inventory cost has basically doubled. This move would get it back to 50% of what it is now.
It's not that unusual for me. I did the same thing before when I sold the Altima coupe to my son in law and got our 99 Maxima back. Sold that later to get the Fiesta. Since I got the Sentra I have not driven or ridden any other of my vehicles, for close to 1000 miles. Today I rode the bike for the first time since getting the Sentra. I like to be in the position to jump on a deal when one becomes available and this would put me in that position.
I can't see the GZ250 ($650) going anywhere, or the Honda 50 ($250) Super Cub. With the $300 Sentra (original price), I doubt I'll ever have less money in 3 vehicles that are reliable, economical and fun. Even if I drive the Sentra 10k miles a year the difference in fuel cost would only be just over $100. I would save that in property taxes on the Fiesta alone. Property taxes on the Sentra are a joke.
