Not really, more rumors about what will be in its stead are swirling like the dust devils at the dry lake beds!!! Have to wait and see.

We've been hearing about this story for approx. 2 months, but no one actually thought it would happen.

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know for all that was following our truck story, they found the truck on Sunday, completely stripped, like worse than your worse nightmare. We had ski racks on the top, and because they couldn't get them off, they just CUT the whole top of the truck off. So sad to actually see the pictures. And yes, we have full coverage, but for a truck that we paid $40,000 cash 7 years ago, they are going to only give us 9,000 because that's all Kelly Blue Book says it's worth now that no one wants SUV's. It sucks. Had a perfect Yukon, and now we are going to get $9,000. I have cried my eyes out over this so much there are no tears left. And to think over 1,000 people go thru this a month out here .... I'm just numb.

not to push your buttons, because i know getting your truck stolen sucks.. but manheim market report (what the dealer's use for trade in, not kelly blue book) put your trucks value at $6000 with under 100k miles unless it is a denali, then its worth $8k....... Just go see the Chopper at Towbin, they were advertising $20k off sticker last week

Thanks for the info Air, I will definitely look into it. Any info is greatly appreciated unless you are bashing me. Really this is a tramatic time for me, and I do appreciate any info so that it's not a total shock in the next few days. We have Farmers Ins ... they specifically told us they use Kelly Blue Book, but who knows at this point. I've been lied to so much the past 5 days, I really don't know who or what to believe at this point. Thanks though again, I will for sure look into it. Just hard to swallow that a truck we paid $40K for 8 years ago is worth 6K.

not trying to bash at all.. ive been a automobile dealer in cleveland for 15yrs... it is amazing the depreciation is that much, but it is to be expected on an american vehicle.. for the same money, if you would have bought a toyota sequoia, nissan pathfinder, honda etc, the truck would be worth almost double...

Ahhh my Best Friend lives in Ashtabula, OH. She moved there about 2 years ago and just HATES it. I imagine a whole world of a difference from Vegas, especially with the climate change. Anyways, thanks for the info. Hey, and since your a car dealer, point me in the right direction of maybe what we should look at.... Thanks!

We usually go to the parade every year, except this one. And I'm going to miss seeing you Aqua!

We'll be able to see it on the tv though, they repeat it on (I think Channel 4) throughout the weekend, so I'll be looking for you.

Listen to what pinkie said, wear the sunscreen and carry a water bottle and drink it!!

Have fun and walk proudly with your Lodge mates.

It's going to be an evening parade, starting on at 7pm. I'll be sure to bring water with me, since I'll be wearing a black suit with a purple tie. I'm going to have to ask my sister to tape it for me.
