But seriously, anyone that doesn't know the history of a 15 to 16 year old car located across the Country from you, are buying it from a non-major brand dealer's used car lot, don't get it 360 degree PDIed yourself/in person, may be buying $5K in deferred maintenance and impending break items on the car. A sub $10K car, with high mileage on it, becomes a $15K car upon ownership/usage of it. Unless you personally know the seller's reputation, it's extremely dicey.
