Should I sell for a good price or keep it?

    I got an offer from a private party for 34k on my white Prime Limited which has about 3600 miles. Since I have TWO of them and just alternate driving either one, I was thinking to pocket the cash as it's almost what I paid for it... and really only need one car. Just like having the twins :p

    If you don't need to buy another car to replace it, then yes sell it. If you have to buy another car to replace it, then whatever the profit you make on the sales will just be handed to the sellers of the other car you are buying.

    I don't need another car, one will do. I've just enjoyed having both... So torn, I love these cars...

    Great time to sell as long as you don’t need to buy a replacement.

    Not sure I understand. If you just need one car, why would you want to have two identical ones? I have a wife, so we sometimes need an extra car. I also need to sometimes haul large things and sometimes need 4WD, so I also have an older 4Runner. But having an extra PP isn't something I need.
