Wondering, do you guys normally sell your kit at end of season and purchase a new one before the season starts? Do you take advantage of season end deals and hold onto throughout the winter/spring?
Half of me says do not spend much and buy a used kit and the other half says buy a new one and make it a winter project.
Curious to hear some thoughts.
Last winter I decided to get a new kit for my XMas present.(We buy our own gifts). I bought a 747..Now this XMas will be a 748!!
Nothing better than building a new kit. If you get a used car, you can tear it down and rebuild it. Unless its seen little use, you'll spend about 70% of the cost of a new kit on parts, bearings, and the other incidentals..
