70-300vr is a nice lens. Only about 550 bucks too, very reasonable.

If I sell my lenses... I can be running 9's lol
Nikkor 80-400VR f.45-56
Nikkor 17-55 f2.8
Nikkor 28mm PC f3.5
Nikkor 50mm f1.4
Nikkor 7-200mm F2.8

Thanks guys! I try my best lol.

WS6: I know how ya feel, man. Photography, my Jeep, my Camaro, my g/f, gas prices. No wonder why I never have money. I don't want to mod the Camaro or the Jeep more than they are 'cause I don't want worse MPG. I'm getting 22 highway with the Jeep and 27 highway with the Camaro! I'm happy running low 13's/high 12's with 27 mpg.

I have all my lenses for sale here:
http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/pho/579342248.html

And with the money from that I am planning to get those two discussed lenses and maybe something else. I dunno yet. People are telling me to keep the primes and I'm just sick of manual focus.
