Why not drain the bad gas and put a little good in? Seems like $20 in good gas might alleviate a lot of your headaches if it can even remotely run

I dont have an electric siphon pump, the gas tank sits about 7 inches off the ground...Then the big one is I got reported to the HOA, I happen to get the truck right at yearly inspection week...Plus is I do get it running that means some knuckle heads going to try and drive it home, rotted tires, crap still in the gas tank, oil, water . If anything goes wrong then dollars to doughnuts they will want a refund.....

In almost every state, once they sign that title, all the problems with are now their problems. Sales on vehicles are final, even at dealerships. (however, a dealership will try to make things right, because they want a good name.)

Usually needing to be towed is going to scare off anyone who has hopes of "finding a diamond in the rough" Strange you've gotten so much attention from it.

[SETHZILLA!]

It's a lowered truck. Here in California that means you're bad ass (in your own mind). Us regular folks who actually use our trucks laugh at anyone with a lowered one.

When Im selling a vehicle on Marketplace, you always get the people offering half your listed price. I simply give them a response of %20 higher than listed. But yeah reading the actual add is not something people do much anymore. The quick response button "Is this available" sucks, especially when I fat finger it accidentally. But I at least apologize if they answer....lol.

This is why I inflate my prices on such platforms. I know it's not going to sell for that price, but then person gets to feel good about bargaining me down and "saving money".

I'm a retail lifer.

This is literally every day of my work life.

[FredMnkyDad10]

You guys are lucky out there. Here in NH those are riddled with tin worm. (Rust/rot). Even a decent (horrible by your standards) would be twice your asking price and people would be happy to pay.

Yes people are stupid when it comes to selling on marketplace. Ive been threatened because I had already sold something

Wait ppl send you angry messages because an item sold.

[cougar20th]

Yup, has happened a couple times. I'll post something it will sell. Before I can remove it someone wants it. And gets very passed when I told them it just sold.

Oh you wanted pictures of the car. I'm really sorry but I don't have them on my phone. There are plenty in the listing. And it would help if you read the listing by clicking.. see more..

Read the listing. If this is too much for you to do. Then that's your problem not mine. There's pictures of the truck and also a description. At this point I think you have issues. And that I probably don't think you should be driving if you can't even follow simple instructions

This is why I often have a rule when listing a vehicle for sale, direct calls only. No text, no PM's, no email. You want it I better hear your voice.

I also do NOT use facebook in any way shape or form. Yeah, it might be the most popular place to list things, but that's not always a good thing. To paraphrase Carlin, think of how stupid the average person is, now realize that half of everyone is stupider than that, and they're all on facebook. So always use the second most popular place to list things (around here that's craigslist, but your local area may be different). Quality over quantity.

As for the calls you might think "who makes actual calls these days?" People who can read the entire message and understand that what they're buying and actually want to buy it, that's who. If someone really wants something they'll suffer a little social awkwardness to get it. Those who won't, well they weren't worth dealing with in the first place. Tirekickers? Won't bother. Lowballers? They don't have the nerve to do it over an actual call. Dumbasses who can't read a complete listing? They won't find the number, thus won't be able to call, so you can safely ignore every other attempt they make to get ahold of you. This weeds out about 90% of scammers as well, they tend to prefer something that can be automated like texts and emails.

[FredMnkyDad10]

woouulf sorry you have to deal with all these. But this is a great funny read.

If someone asks how much my free offering is, I'm getting cash. Stupid is worth a pizza and a six pack.
