Pretty funny story on Craigslist

Check out this idiot. The 82 300SD. The car's gone from a one owner beauty at 4500 down to a cracked windshield for 2900 with a salvage title due to theft while stopping off at his discovery that his license was suspended at 3500. Does this twit not realise that these ads are all there for folks to see? Pretty damm funny actually.

Did you read the line "just add gas and go"?
