    decreases in value on the books, not reality. They are depreciated. google the name, it will explain better. My business bought my truck, and paid for it.

    The 383 cuda's have the same if not higher value than the Dart GTS. Some people just don't like B bodies, and the Duster/dart/cuda crowd is huge. especialy in a four speed 383. today 7500 is not a big deal at all. all you have to do is look at the FABO site and see what people are wanting for...
