good morning Tech Man,
Reality bites, however for a reasonable expectation of a sale, - yes.. all current advice on a 7500 - 8000 sale price for your unit is correct. Park it, give it to family, donate it or just keep it and enjoy it - but don't expect to get more than .30 cents on the dollar for any accessory you have purchased or .40 cents on the dollar for a used unit - of any condition.. it's nothing personal with the dealers -as MnT pointed out... it's just a business and yes, they do need to make a profit.
Just like drinking milk before bed, it's an easy dump when you drop it off at the dealer and pick up your new Viking! What a beautiful day it is.. just do it and move on... The Viking's worth it and to rid ourselves of past vehicles (burdens?) is worth it.. Whats the difference? a one-year payback on licking your wounds?
I know if you have enjoyed the Rhino you'll really enjoy the Vike -
