Man, I hope I can get $12 K for my Subaru when it's 10 years old. Shouldn't have more than about 160,000 miles on it by then. That would be quite the trade-in!

Back on topic, Eyman needs to do us a favor and slip on some ice this winter. But I hear ya' on inflated property tax values. My undeveloped assessed property value went up about 60% in 2008, which as we know was an outstanding year for real estate. I wouldn't have minded if they logically increased the value when the house is built. I shudder to think what they're gonna' think it's worth when they come by this year and see a house and garage.
