If you're like me those 911s haven't seen the light of day since December. Milwaukee has exceeded it's salt budget 4 times over. My Yukon, on the other hand........

Another point on expense and Rolex - There are lots of things that are expensive that defy logic. I have friends that collect audio. Some turntables are well into 4 figures. Another is into astronomy. He thinks nothing of spending 10k on an eyepiece. My wife's sisters collect Lalique crystal (as does my wife). A vase (pronounced "vaahhz" ) can run 10k easily. Mechanical fuel injection componants for an old Super Carrera are BIG bucks. A Porsche Speedster will fetch 100k - maybe more.

Buying a Rolex is a bargain imo. It's about buying something you like because it is what it is - not - i because it does what it does. How many things like that can you buy and actually sell for more $$ a year later?
