We finally did it! Just over a year ago I did a mutual fund transfer to my checking account to buy a newer used truck. After looking and not finding one to pull the trigger on, at the end of the year I gifted about half of the tranfer to my son. Then this year just a few days over one year from the previous transfer, I did it again. Yesterday, we went through the major hassle of buying a used '24' Toyota SR5 truck from a dealer with 11,016 mile, signing a dozen papers not really knowing what they say. We did BTD! Now, I have to sell the 1997 T-100 that we bought in 2000. Of course, our original salesmen a younger guy, was just the start, we saw three more people and then they had to take our offer into "The Office" to get it OK'ed, We negotiated about 7% off the asking price, I don't know if they would have went lower, I think it helped that it was clear we had been looking for over a year and we drove 85 miles to the dealer, that it was now or never. Our original salesman, said he was surprised that we got the deal, FWIW, but we will always wonder, could we have got another $1,000 of? LOL
