So then, what's the difference between a Harley and the old Mercedes we drive? Don't people drive Mercedes for the "mystique" or the character of the car?

The bikes are still holding their resale value. My view, when you buy a Harley, it is as much the "mystique" or the character of the bike as it is the bike itself. Sure it's big, comfortable, powerful, but so are many others. The value holds up because the Harley "mystique" does not depreciate. New or used, it's still a Harley Davidson. Most HDs seem to be meticulously maintained, I mean it's rare that I ever see one that does not look like it just rolled out of the showroom. I'd love to own one, but don't have the savings to spare, and it's not something I'd go into debt for. I *hope* that I'm never in the situation of having to finance transportation again -- took me a good 15 years to learn the folly of doing that.
