I dont think I would sell my car for $20,000 if someone were to offer that, even though that would mean the end of several of my problems:
1. 3 vehicles and fishing boat with 2 car garage and driveway
2. husband who semi-cheerfully watches me spend money on repairs for a car he can't even get into
3. $20,000 would pay off my Forester and some other debts and pay for daughter's tuition for a semester
4. Our insurance premiums would be cut in half
it's just TOO MUCH FUN to drive, plus the sheer coolness factor.
you just can't put a price on that.
however, $30,000 and I might reconsider
