I’ll do it for $15,000. I won’t be undersold!

I disagree. Taping over a warning light (or removing the bulb) is not uncommon and it’s dead simple to determine by checking that all warning lights active with the key on. Perhaps buyers aren’t aware of this but a licensed dealer would likely be held to a higher standard in court.

Perhaps, but a licensed dealer should do this as a matter of any vehicle inspection, so the onus is on them when they pass it onto a buyer.

People in the industry (and many owners) know that one of the first checks should be that all warning lights on the dash light-up when the key is on. Though a buyer should be diligent about this, I would think a strong case could be made that something like this wouldn’t slip past a licensed dealership. Even if an

Pretty much my comment exactly.

I gotta wonder how much longer the ZFG tag will be used to describe any rat vehicle.

It costs more than $60,000 to fuel the plane.

$60,000 on a plane that costs millions isn’t significant.

It wouldn’t matter how far away the box floated since it should have the coordinates at the point of ejection that would lead them to the plane.

I’ve always wanted to pick up an XJS super cheap and throw a small block drivetrain in it. Wasn’t that a thing once?

Probably one of the best “everyman’s supercars”. I was a mechanic during their heyday and ended up an “expert” on them in the Northwest, mainly because the shop I worked out had an old-style tire balancer that could get them to stop shaking at high speed. I “tested” one at 120+ and it was rock solid.

I don’t know where you traveled Lillie but I spent 2 weeks on a motorcycle in Germany, Austria, Italy, Monaco, Switzerland and San Marino and I didn’t notice many poor road conditions. BTW I work for a state department of transportation so I know a little about the subject.

Spoken like someone that has never toured by motorcycle...

The ad says the bumpers have been painted since the pics were taken. Might be a red flag.

Isn’t that a split bench seat? Looks like you could lower the arm rest for a middle passenger.

With you until #3.

What, no picture of the XN85 I lusted after in the Suzuki dealership back in 1983?

Actually, Yamaha reverses the crank rotation in their MotoGP M1 to counter the tendency to wheelie.

Michael and I instructed together for PSSR in Portland. A few years back he brought one of the early E-bikes to the track for testing. It was fast but unfortunately it suffered from thermal runaway and I stood by and watched it go up in smoke. They poured water on it for hours trying to keep the temps down but in the
