DrumBob Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 I cringe at the punctuation and grammar mistakes people make in their CL ads. It's like they never went to school. I wouldn't look at that car based upon the seller's atrocious writing. And, you're asking people to spend almost $20K, and you don't put any details in the ad? What a maroon. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchan Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 It might be worth the asking, but you'd have to get a lot closer than the photographer to know. Pretty sure it isn't front-wheel drive, either. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deac Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Apart from the punctuation issues in the ad this car doesn't look that bad. There's a lot of questions I would have if I were trying to buy it. But it does seem like it's fairly priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryankazmer Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 « Maroon » is old-timely slang. Bugs Bunny used it. You spelled « moron » right though - so often I see « moran ». Really sucks the bite out when misspelled. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne sheldon Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I had to laugh out loud myself! First time I read the comment, as my eye looked ahead and saw the misspelling (sic), my brain quickly switched to Bugs Bunny and I heard it just as Bugs said it in a cartoon or two! (Maybe I am crazy????) It seemed perfectly normal to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
