Value, bandwagon, new paradigm, tulips?
Probably the measly interest rate banks are giving for your savings.
Might as well have something old and fun in the drive instead of watching your money evaporate. And why not?
Military stuff is the same, but less susceptible to market spikes and troughs. There
the fun is in "having" rather than driving.
At least you can go shopping in a 265!
