Finally a man with some principles
 
I got a kick out of this guy's craigslist add. Seems he really cars about his car. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/car/419734895.html

Hehe.. that cracked me up.

Loved it! Especially the "hippie treehuggers" part

The only problem I see is that he's confusing biodiesel with veggie oil conversions, like 95% of the population out there.

GRIESL 09-11-2007 08:44 PM

Who does he think reads Craigslist?

Funny
 
A "Purist" among us.

I agree, he's confusing biodiesel with WVO.
I don't see myself "bastardizing" my cars in any way, shape, or form by using biodiesel.

If I ever sell my car this is going in bold at the bottom of the add!

"This is a fine car with plenty of good miles left. I am not selling this car to anyone who will bastardize it into a biodiesel frankenstein either. This is not a PRIUS so hippie treehuggers need not apply!"


Classic!:D:D:D

The car? $6000
The next engine? $2000.00

Knowing it's not a Prius?
Priceless. :D

Hatterasguy 09-11-2007 11:56 PM

Yeah Prius's suck!:cool::D

It's just the idea of 'em I dislike. Cars are supposed to have horsepower, and run on fuel of some kind other than half-electricity. They're just... if we can't have our old monster v-8s and huge diesels anymore, then at least keep it somewhat real.

Let's ask the hybrid people in about ten years what it cost them to replace those huge batteries! I'll keep my petroleum, thanks! :D

So you mean to tell me that you, a guy with over 13K posts can't tell the difference between Biodiesel and WVO?

I know exactly what the difference is, I was just using a quite.:rolleyes:

While he used the wrong term, the message is rather clear.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

This is fantastic! I work in Boulder CO, which is pretty much hippy central. While I don't care one way or the other the notion of choosing the next owner of your car based on their political preferences is Priceless!

You think Boulder is hippie central? One word: Berkeley, CA. :D
In any case, how exactly is one going to justify ruining a $6000 SDL by using WVO?
