I think this makes an important point about "value". Even the cheapest old car will go 80 mph, last for over 100,000 miles, go through cold & snow, carry many occupants & keep them safe & warm. Even if it is worth only a couple of thousand dollars.

A new fancy bike will do none of these and cost many times this amount.

One is closer to need. The other closer to want. A lesson in value.
