Craigslist Seller Knows What They Have, a Truck Not On Fire (Anymore)
Craigslist Seller Knows What They Have, a Truck Not On Fire (Anymore)-January 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 $2,750, Could This 1988 BMW 528e Be Your Entry Into the BMW Brotherhood?
At $2,750, Could This 1988 BMW 528e Be Your Entry Into the BMW Brotherhood?
When it was new, today’s 528e represented the bottom of the E28 model lineup here in the US. It’s not so new now, but will its five-speed stick and price tag ensure it still rises to the occasion? Oh how the mighty have fallen. Yesterday’s represented a special edition of...

Can a Dealer Low-Ball My Trade Because It Has a Recall?
As Jalopnik’s resident car buying expert and professional car shopper, I get emails. Lots of emails. Sometimes folks get into a tough spot or don’t know what to do, so I’ve decided to pick a few questions and try to help out. First up: I have a 2014 A6 TDI...

The 2018 Nissan GT-R Is More Godzilla Than Ever: Ancient but Unstoppable
It’s old. It weighs as much as a house. It’s not relevant anymore. It’s expensive, for a Nissan. No manual, no care. It’s a computer car, a video game car that requires no skill to drive. It looks like a . It’s got no soul. This is how the R35...

Cutting a car’s roof off is usually a bad idea, structurally speaking. That is, unless it’s a body on frame like today’s Cutlass. Let see if this custom droptop’s price makes you weak in the knees. There are lots of things called Mega in America. There are Mega Churches, Mega...

Let’s say you need to compensate for something—no, no, we’re not saying what, we’ll just let it go at that. Whatever your compensatory need, you could do far worse than today’s Ram, since it’s hella big. Let’s if its price is too. We generally don’t like broken cars here because...
