Mecum KC-

'05 Ford GT
3300 miles
Didn't sell at 390k
I've seen em go regularly on Mecum for 330k recently. Still holding at that price range.

'56 Chevy 150 Gasser
Took at camera shot underneath and the exhausts are the size of sewer pipes LOL. Didn't sell at 120k. One thick car.

Per Toyota Forum-

Guy got to 380K on his '97 Camry.
I'm at 284K, so here's hoping.

Bought my wife a 2025 Honda CRV EX. will use her old Honda as a beater in the winter so my new baby stays safe and warm in the garage when it snows. I love the blue. They call it Still Night Pearl. Crazy color names.

I had a white 1979 Toyota Supra that I drove for 360K, tired to gift it to my daughter when she was old enough to drive, but her comment ( dad its old LOL) so my mechanic made me an offer. He and his son, totally restored the car , frame up.. I never had a single issue with the car when I owned it. Of course the usually stuff, brakes, tune ups, injection cleaning, filters, belts, dash pad. What a fun car, love those inline 6's.

Thanks. It’s a Genesis. Model GV70 3.5T Sport Prestige.

I mentioned a friend whose car's harness was chewed- that's a Genesis, too.

Just saw that color in person at the dealer last week while getting an oil change done on our Civic. Pictures don't do it justice, it's a beautiful blue.

Temp gauge doesn't work. If it's not the gauge, what connected to it could be causing it?

$48K for a brand new car in the US on average? Doesn't sound right, but if it is well that's more than some trucks. WTF!

Haha! What truck is that? Maybe a work truck with 2wd and a vinyl floor lol.

Scotty Kilmer has some funny videos on cars. I call him the Great BSer. You can't take him too seriously since he's pissing around, but he was talking about cars not to own and the BMW. There's like zero room under the hood to work. Maybe they're all like that now. I dunno. Some of the hoses are that hard plastic LOL. Really?!?!

I think you can do a z-71 for about 45k. That’s a lot of money for a small truck, albeit a nice one. IMO, the secondary market is where the best value is. It’s painful thinking about how much value you lose as soon as you leave the lot.

Maybe you're talking about slightly used? The stuff like 2K price range was high.
