That's funny, oilPan4. Graham is little unincorporated area that's more Texas than Seattle, with lotsa military and Boeing machinists riding your rear bumper in monster trucks. However, they like 'em new and shiny, so I was able to pick up my pristine '87 F250 diesel for only $1800 eight years ago. Subarus and Pri-i command a premium on the used market around Seattle, but old trucks get exported. A large import to local dealers are used EVs and hybrids from California. Washington state is only behind CA and HI on EV market penetration, and with much milder incentives, but they're all concentrated around Seattle.
