I have purchased four mounts over the career of my fighter.  Is it true that I can't sell them?  I need to know before I spend a ton on a new one in paragon.  Please advise

They are considered mundane equipment.  (i.e. they aren't magic items and the core rules don't allow for selling non-magical stuff).  It'd proably be a possibility in a home game, but not in LFR.
Sorry WOTC, you lost me with Essentials.  So where I used to buy every book that came out, now I will be very choosy about what I buy.  Can we just get back to real 4e?

No problem, that was my understanding.  Follow-up.  Is there anything preventing me from bringing them on the adventure?  Seems silly, I know.  But, its legal?

To clarify, "bring ALL of them"

Nothing stopping you by the rules, you can even loan them out to other players to ride.

I would hope they give us rules for selling mounts and vehicles in the future otherwise it's quite silly. 

Blah blah blah

Just remember that if you bring all of them... if you happen to be in combat the DM can be within their rights to say that the unmounted ones can't contribute without a rider.  And also remember that in the unlikely event that the DM does allow it, they would all share your pool of actions.  So wouldn't be able to do much with them.  If on the extreme off chance that a DM was smoking crack that day and allowed them to take full actions on their own, you'd have to treat them as full party members which would mean addign their levels to the party total and upping the difficulty of encounters by an appropriate amount.

IOW, it's best if youre lending them out rather than just havign them tag along.

Wait - if a mount is mundane equipment, and if a module were to hand one out as a reward, would taking the mount still count against your item slots?

It seems silly that you can't sell a mount (many of which are quite expensive) even if they are "mundane"

CoolWell, regardless, my Nightmare is bound to turn heads.  I'm not sure why it is legal for play considering its alignment is evil.

I woudl suspect that takign the mount woudl use up your selection for that mod but would not count as a found item slot (much like selecting a scroll or consumable).  However, I don't know of any mounts given out as treasure so i can't say for sure if they have done such a thing.
