It is kind of a sad feeling, isn't it? I owned the most expensive car I have ever owned for less than 45 days, and sold it to an MD, who was rumored to be having marital and substance abuse problems. He wrecked it within 2 weeks of buying it from me while out on a 2 day cocaine and booze binge with his young g/f.

I keep cars for a long time. This car was a 'fee' of sorts and I could not justify keeping it (plus my 10 month old and 3 year old would have destroyed it). It still made me sad that it is no longer on the road......can't explain it.

Yep, the sadness is weird and inexplicible.

I would probably get more attached to an RV than a regular car--I bet ther ewere some memories in that thing. What's funny is that I am far more into boats than cars, and I couldn't care less what happens to them after I sell them.

Hopefully the check cleared!
Sad though, makes you regret selling it. Just sold my boat, I have visions of seeing its decay and destruction next year.

Cash. But he was as perfect a southern gentleman as you would ever want to meet so I wouldn't have even worried about a check. The sad thing is that I had collision insurance on it and he didn't.
