I toured the factory back in college (about 1983). If they still do tours, you ought to check it out...amazing vehicle.

Awsome, impressive and all the rest, BUT, probably one of the worst investments you could make in a lifetime. I'm talking about the Newell now.

Its not an investment......it probably depreciates 4-5 thousand $ a week. It will never resell for more than what it costs now.
