Yes, as these things start piling in we are going to see people selling kidneys in order to float the MSRPs.

And not to be a Debbie downer, but I also hope people are pondering April 15. The tax man is going to come calling. On a quick flip, your cost of ownership is almost nothing so the profits are going to be heavily taxed.

Tax man always calls…I just about gave him 3/4’s of a level 2 TRX this year already.

26

Level 2 is the only way to go on these trucks. You want the most creature comforts while driving from gas pump to gas pump.

Dang. Parts received? As of last week, mine was still “waiting on parts.” I’ll have to check again. But I just brought my interim Mach-e home tonight. I hope the TRX doesn’t happen TOO fast. Gotta wait on the title for this one!

I’m kind of thinking a one-pay lease on the TRX? I had mentioned before I’d like to avoid having a hit on my credit, though. Can they deny you a one-pay lease?

One pay or not is going to require a hard inquiry. And certainly they can deny an application for a one pay.

31

Oh, I know. I guess what I mean is … like if all this flipping hurts my credit, can they actually reject you for a one-pay lease? I mean, you are paying the damned thing up front, so it would be silly, but not shocking, either.

33

I don’t think they will honestly, although I’m guessing the percentage of lease to purchase is less then a half a percent.

The level 2 package really has all the bells and whistles

If you’re getting a house or something the flip of $10k isn’t really worth getting a shit interest

But if you’re saving credit for credit cards - recon lines are your friends. Most of the time you’ll get through - except citi they don’t give a F

36

Say what? I followed like half that.

37

A hard inquiry is about 5 point hit on the FICO score, or so I hear

38

Why are worried about credit hits? Are you getting a mortgage soon ?

39

Absolutely. You’re still holding their collateral for several years.

No. I just don’t want to F it up.

Funny… so it used to be over 800 but I made a lot of big moves this year and saw it dip to 760. I just now checked again and its back to 788. Jeep must have come off or something. I know damned near nothing about how scores work.

I hate that I am asking this question but who has numbers on these things for a monthly or 1 pay ballparked?

Wish it could come in this year for a section 179 move but that is impossible. My 7 series is up in 5 months and so moves need to be made sooner rather than later for a build and deliver. This thing would be faster and have way more room than even the 7 series.
