There are old threads on it. But is there anything in the newer SR4 books that directly addresses this aside from the "used" price modifier in the BBB? Anything with maintenence?

If not do you bother with modeling used/old vehicles in any way? If so how? I'd like to do that in my game because.

1. Vehicles are freaking expensive (I'm looking at the tilt wing in particular)

2. It does add some character, and reasons for people to have decent piloting skills and mechanics skills.

I'm thinking

Applying the Gremlins quality to the vehicle at varying levels.

Requiring maintenence after every use. (Not exactly sure exactly how to work with that).

Part of the damage track being permanently filled in.

Maybe combine the last two there in that old craft take on damage after every use and mechanics work is just fixing that?

Anyone do something else? And advice on specific numbers I could use that could be fair?
