I'm expecting the same thing, though I don't know that things are very tight yet, at least not around here with 2% unemployment. I'm still waiting for the construction business to slow down so I can find a decent deal on a mid-sized excavator. They are coming down in price, but not much just yet. As for the PWs it only makes sense that if a guy has to choose to sell something due to hard times, it's the hobbies that'll go first.

I took a look on ebay and you're right about how many PWs are for sale, including lots of unrestored ones. It's kind of nice to know there are still some out there that a guy with some ambition could get for a reasonable price. They're all back east and down south. I wonder if that's because there are just more PWs hidden in the back woods there, or the economy is still pretty decent out here.

One thing I do know is that I have no idea where the economy's going. There are already a lot of people saying "I wish I'd sold my house last year." Next year they might be saying "I wish I'd sold my truck last year." It might not be a bad idea to cash out now, keep your powder dry, and pick up some real bargains in a couple years. Of course if the trucks are cheap, but gas is $10/gal, cheap trucks might not be all that much fun.
