That tends to be the case with most things - houses included.

However, if you sell something very quickly, you often wonder if you 
have sold it too cheaply.


I often try to underprice things just so that they will sell faster. 
However, it is often difficult to really judge that sort of thing 
accurately.


We sold a 98 F150 in September and had a lot of interest in it and a 
quick sale although I thought I had priced it reasonably but not really 
cheaply. I think a lot of the reason is that the truck was in nice 
condition for its age and a lot of vehicles are really beaten up by that 
age.

Thanks for the comments and well-wishes, all. Joe Sasser of this list is 
planning to come up from Texas (!)
  to pick Sadie up later this month. I think he got a very good deal, and I'm 
glad Sadie's going to someone who'll
continue to enjoy and care for her.

Thanks to Kaleb, Rusty, Loren, the late Marshall, Fred and many others on this 
list that made owning this car for 80k miles
an extremely enjoyable and affordable experience.

I'll be lurking for a while yet
