Sometimes I wish I had ventured down the icom HF road Mike. As a new HAM I bought a well-priced reliable FT897d from Sam Ford and then got used to the horrible menu system over about 10 years. Somehow as a result I now own FT891 & FT817nd (which I love!).
OT warning: I had the same experience with vehicles. Bought one Toyota Prado back in the day, loved the car, couldn't handle the fuel usage, sold it for a profit. Switched to Land Rover, now on my 9th and have been loving the fuel consumption and performance and suffering with the resale value ever since
