thought of the moment:
- we are probably going to end up with a VW ID.Buzz (or other sliding door van body style BEV that comes after that) down the road
- car algorithm sites have already baked in future depreciation even in the EQB's just off the lots state, so although it'll depreciate that ship has already sailed, as it were
- having a Land Cruiser around to do winter Land Cruiser-y things (and maybe just running the Switzerland "Trail" with the kids in the summer for kicks or driving up on the forest roads above WP) is a nice thing
- the prospect of potentially getting $25k from an IH8Mud or BaT buyer but not having a Land Cruiser is not particularly attractive, and my two-house liquidity crunch isn't that bad, I forecast
therefore perhaps I should keep the Land Cruiser indefinitely and when the ID.Buzz comes to these shores (and after I and the wife test drive it and decide definitively it can replace her beloved PacHy-the-second) then I trade the (minimal equity at that point probably) EQB and the (100% equity, paid off) PacHy in against an ID.Buzz.
