Craigslist Seller Knows What They Have, a Truck Not On Fire (Anymore)
Craigslist Seller Knows What They Have, a Truck Not On Fire (Anymore)-June 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:09:46

Many of us feel we are living in pessimistic times at best, so it’s like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day to see some pure, unadulterated optimism. Let this Craigslist ad for a Chevy S10 suffering from a heap of problems—the least of which was temporarily being on fire—serve as a refresher for your world-weary soul.

Here’s the ad from :

1992 Chevy s10 4.3 4x4 auto frame is broke in 3 places and rusty, no longer has the bed, won’t start, I don’t think its firing, lots of good parts and the title is good, taxes are paid,, $350. Only drove on Sundays by a little ol lady, back and forth to the bootlegger

You know you’ve found a sweet deal when the title of a Craigslist ad includes “no longer on fire.”

This ad is actually fairly trimmed down. The original ad mentioned that the hood scoop originally came from a lawnmower and that the interior is “better than you would think,” according to .

For a $350 truck with a shattered frame and a lawnmower scoop, better than what I think the interior looks like is still not ‘nice’ enough. But this person is out there, trying their all to sell this broken beast. If you dream it, you can achieve it!

And if you’re wondering where to see video of this truck performing burnouts (before the engine stopped turning over, of course) look no further.

At $7,499, Is This ‘Imperfect’ 1985.5 Porsche 944 a Perfectly Good Deal?
At $7,499, Is This ‘Imperfect’ 1985.5 Porsche 944 a Perfectly Good Deal?
It’s been said that high tides lift all boats, and in a similar fashion, all Porsche badges mean ever-rising values. Today’s 944 might be a way to get in while the getting is good. That’s if its price hasn’t already risen too much. Tell me something — on those...

Wrapping Up Nice Price Or No Dice for 2022
As we say “Bye Felicia” to the rollercoaster ride that was 2022, it’s time to take one more look back at all the cars, the price tags, and the votes that made up over the past twelve months. Amazingly, this is our sixth wrap-up recapping our weekday contest of...

At $35,000, Would You Go All-In on This AWD 2010 BMW 535i X-Drive?
Today’s BMW has the numbers—two turbos, four-wheels driven, a six-speed stick, and just 85K on the clock. Let’s if its most important number—its price—seals the deal. I’m ashamed to admit it, but up until I was delving into yesterday’s , I didn’t know what the “SR5” on Toyotas meant....

At $22,500, Would you Corral This 1966 Ford Mustang ‘GT 350 Tribute’?
At $22,500, Would you Corral This 1966 Ford Mustang ‘GT 350 Tribute’?
To be fully transparent, today’s Mustang has nothing to do with Carroll Shelby other than honoring his legacy, and the car is presented in the ad as nothing more. Let’s see if that’s enough. Last Friday — last year, in fact — we looked at a long-in-the-tooth . According...

At $12,500, Would You Leap at the Chance to Buy This 1996 Chevy Impala SS
At $12,500, Would You Leap at the Chance to Buy This 1996 Chevy Impala SS
The seller of today’s Impala SS notes that it is the only model year to offer a floor shifter. Let’s see if we’re floored by the price. Is there a term for an “anti-mamma bear”? You know, something that, instead of falling within a well-defined optimal range sits squarely...
