This is proof that taxes on the rich are too low.

With the caveat that I used to own and ride horses and still can’t fully shake that cowboy aesthetic, I actually like it. I can appreciate them doing something different...they could have gone with the standard leather and alcantara interior and it probably would have looked great, but this looks good and is “fun”

This makes sense, but your vote is really ND then. I don’t think it’s reasonable to assume you’ll just drop 25% off their asking price, (even if that’s a legitimate response)

Great truck, bad price. The dealer most likely knows the truck’s true worth, but added an extra $4K in case a fool comes in and pays near full price.  

Nooope. Wrong generation Montero at the laughably wrong price. Sorry bub, whatever that finance guy at the Mitsubishi dealer did to get you to bend over for a subprime loan at a ridiculous interest rate is on you should be considered a sunk cost. Ridiculous.

loved these back in the day. BUT anything over 4 digits is too too much

Googled Point Nemo, and it’s also known as

Selling for a friend, what the hell is up with that?

To overcome lack of power steering old cars used larger wheels to give more of a mechanical advantage i.e. leverage to steering the car.

came here to say this - “License Plate Thumb” - hard nope

“Just needs.” There’s no such thing as just needs. If it just needs a $300 freon charge do it and ask for $500 more. But you know it’s not that. It needs a $1,500 in compressor/clutch/lines work. If it just needs an 02 sensor to pass inspection, buy the $50 thing and put it in. But you know it’s not that. It needs

A photo of the car that is not of the actual car.

This shit. Bonus warning for those that do this in a couple pics but at least one clearly shows the plate. If you are this dense, I don’t want to give you money.

“A/C needs a re-charge” = “Add another $1000 to replace the A/C compressor, lines, condenser and everything else related to the system.”

Oh, god, yeah. Half the time the biggest red flag is not the car’s condition. It is the seller is an arsehole. No car is enough of a unicorn to make dealing with some people worthwhile. 

“no lowballers, I know what I have

“In great condition, just needs. . . *lists a dozen weekend projects* . . . parts are in the trunk, easy fix, just haven’t had time to install them.”

Taking pictures and omitting certain sections of the car, or just taking really bad pictures. If you don’t show any pictures of the interior, or you crop out the bumper, I am going to assume there’s a real good reason you don’t want me to see those. If you take a haphazard snapshot with grease on the lens and the hood

Ran when parked.

I haven’t purchased a car from a private seller in over 20 years but I tend to browse a lot. Wealth signaling vanity shots where someone carefully arranges every “nice” thing they have into frame always gets under my skin and gives me the ick. Like, no way do I want to deal with that person and their ego.
