I largely agree with your original post. This site reads like an IPO rating site. Market makers, long term price trends, supply/demand. The only thing missing is expiration of lockup provisions.

Yeah, I figured some may not get it. So just went the other way, live and let live.
My advice to those here looking for suggestions,
Yes, get it, buy both, which one? The one you said...

Which should I do:

Buy a DJ41 126334, rhodium diamond dial, jubilee bracelet

OR

Down payment on an F350SD diesel, supercab, XLT, long bed.

Which is the better investment? What discount should I expect? AD or Trusted Seller?

Pretty much sums up my original original post so Yes, buy both. As for the wedding budget, divert the funds to buy a few pm pieces because that's the only way to get a Daytona at msrp. Much more important to spend that money on building a relationship with an AD instead of investing in your life.
"Do you think my future will mind,

...if I choose the black or white Daytona."
Not at all, congrats on the incoming.

I urge everyone to make a sincere effort to enjoy this weekend. Life is really very short. Reach out to mom and dad and say hi, for the hell of it.

I like your attitude.

Grateful actually. It's been a tough day. A tough few months.

And all the bellyaching on here lately has gotten me sour.

Love this post.

The TRF is great. Like most things, it is what you make it.
