Its closer to the Honda plants that are in central Ohio. I guess “near” is relative, but my point was that there isn’t really any detroit influence in Ohio beyond toledo. Honda is a huge influence since the manufacturing plant is local. Jeep is, which might conflict with what I said about detroit, but its more due to…

Never even heard of Hiram!

Haha... My experience with ashland involved trucks and corn fields... but that was many moons ago...

I’d consider signing up for this. Sure sure its “easy” to fill it up yourself. its also easy to cook dinner yourself. Oh yeah and its easy to babysit your own kid. And it is pretty easy to mow your own lawn.

I thought it would be ridiculously expensive too, but for $5 a fill up ($20/month), if it saves 15 minutes,…

I live in ohio (hence why I’m weighing in on someone whose looking to buy a car in Ohio), and I’m friends with the guy in West Chester that has it on there! haha.

I know a few people who rent via Turo and this other company that I can’t think of the name of at the moment with great luck. One of my friends has been renting his model S out for years, and several others rent out their pickup trucks. If they wreck it, that is what insurance is for... haha.

Thats true!

Cleveland is not near detroit.

in fact, Ohio generally hates anything that as to do with michigan.

Seriously in Ohio you can make BANK renting out your truck. A 2500 like that will be a profitable car to own!

I went to college in the middle of nowhere and had a wonderful 4 cylinder GMC Sonoma. Perfect college truck. Great fuel economy, could haul a good amount, and cheap!

As a college professor in Ohio... I can’t figure out what school that could possibly be. Ohio Northern University used to be the defacto “in the middle of nowhere school”, but its 30 mins from Lima.

anyway, this is too easy of a question. Its super easy to get a great car for 15 grand... and I’ve only spent over 20…

I just googled curb stoners. I think I might have always used a different definition than what others use.

We’ve always used curbstoning as LEGITIMATE LICENSED dealers who sell a car from their house instead of from a dealership. I don’t think thats illegal unless they avoid complying with regulations. I for example…

Facebook is the new craigslist imho. 

I’ve been wondering about that. The number of people asking me if my car is for sale, or telling me they are interested and then don’t respond confuses the heck out of me.

Yeah. I have much better experience selling on CL in the 15-30k range.

I wouldn’t want to sell in the 1000-3500 range and deal with those people... haha. 

I agreed to this once. It was nuts.

more nuts is it worked out. The guy rented a uhaul, drove a collectors car from Cleveland to columbus. I picked up the uhaul in columbus with the car on it, and brought it home, then returned the uhaul.

In retrospect, I can’t believe that worked out...

I’ve bought from curbstoners before. Still don’t understand what the problem is. As long as the car is what they say it is, who cares if they are a dealer in disguise?

my neighbor owns a car dealership and he regularly puts a single car out in front of his driveway with a “For Sale” sign on it. Besides the annoying…

haha. The only reason this is funny is because he probably thought you were a scammer. 

I had a guy do that over a motorcycle. Said he drove 4 hours and I wouldn’t even lower the price. I said we agreed to a price and I was willing to honor it... but I’m sorry if he wasted his time.

I’d feel bad if he came and there was like a serious hidden defect I failed to disclose, but not just because I wouldn’t…

I started reading your post and thought it was my post.

in other words I agree 100% and you might be my long lost sibling.
