Have you ever had an Ostrich steak??? so delicious!
How do you steak a big chicken?
Hey! You two need to keep it on topic.
Ostrich meat is lean red meat. My cousin used to raise Ostriches, which turned out to be an exercise in wasting money.
How do you steak a member? lol
What I meant was, usually its boobs, thighs, legs and wings.
I don't know. If your going to be that close to work I'd consider not having a car at all or maybe at most a cheap beater to use on the weekends. Probably save a ton of money and hassle.

dont forget paying insurance for it sit there. check what the insurance rate for that expensive beast will be. and especially in that area.
my buddy had a gen 1 raptor he bought new. DD'd it. carried heavy pallets in the back all the time. did a ton of off roading in it (not jumping it like a maroon). carried his dirt bikes etc... i drove it off road. it was a blast. it hauls ass off road and stops on a dime on dirt. he put 100k on it and then a dealership came and bought it off him. squeaks and rattles and all

I have to agree with this. If you wont be driving it much I would say no just due to the parking charge. Unless you will be parking a vehicle anyways, if that is the case go for it!
The same can be said with any vehicle, except Raptors are proven to hold their values better than most.
I paid $43k for my 2012 w/12k miles back in 02/2013. Kept it almost five years. Traded in with 91k miles and still got $28k.
They are ridiculous, my boss sold his a few months ago and got 27K for his 2010 5.4 Raptor!
Raptors hold their value really well. Especially low mileage ones.
Prime example. This is the dealer I traded mine into.
2014 w/33k miles for $48k.

so -22,000 in 3 years? yeah that sounds FANTASTIC
Uh, 2014 Raptors didn't sell for $70k. You might want to look that up.
Loaded MSRP was around $57k.
$57 - $48 doesn't equal 22, not where I come from...

MSRP on that truck is 56,860. Asking price of 48,300. Only a $8560 drop over 3-4 years depending on if it was an early or late 2014 model.

Exactly. About $3k a year depreciation, just like mine was.
Ya, about 5% depreciation over 3 years isn't bad, especially when you take into account there is a new gen Raptor out.
