1999 Ford F-350 diesel pick-up. $28,990 with all the bells and maybe even a whistle.
2011 Ford F-350 diesel pick-up. $59,995 with a few bells, no whistles, and a stupid extra tank for DEF.
So, I paid $45,600 for my house in 2001.
Why is this new truck costing more than my house? Unless I can watch TV and poop in it, there is no way it should cost more than my house. then again, I guess I could put a TV in it, and crap in the driver's seat. would be a smelly ride, watching equally smelly programming, but...
I'm just saying...
WE are all retarded for paying this much. Then again...
1977 a bushel of corn: $2.01
2004 a bushel of corn: $2.01
Oh yeah! makes you want to throw your hat in the creek, doesn't it?
$7 bushels of corn in 2011 do make me smile, but I have to wonder if we will go back to the $2 corn in the future. How can I afford a new pick-up on $2 corn? Outrageous!
