Yeah, Looked at an 04 that Lockhart Hummer had for $71,000. out the door(may still have it), I just couldn't see the depreciation being worth it. I ended up with the 97.5 wagon, 05 Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R, 06 KLR650, 05 MV7, 06 XR200(for the g/f) and cash to spare for parts. Budget??? well, I still have $20K left for....what ever. As much as I like owning a "new" vehicle, I couldn't promise that I wouldn't put scratches and dents in it. Once the 06 Alpha has some of the kinks worked out it will take the H1 to a new level. I'm sure it will be a few years before the price come down to my level. You do have a point! Lockers are a must. The nice thing about the late 90's truck is that the price is coming down where it is an afforable offroad truck for me.
