You'd run out of room if you included all the ones on eBay!

Happy Motoring, Mark

I think the "diesel is cheaper than gasoline" thread has proven it's impossible to run out of room here...

on craigslist, the pics HOSTED are easily added to the post by right clicking on the pics, choosing copy image location then in the post reply section, manage attachments, and paste the location into the upload from url field. repeat for all pics, then just copy and paste the text from the ad into the reply section...
I.E. the last thread I started... it's a good example of a turd listing, and it's got all the pics and text included in the thread.
I'll move it to this thread.
heck,
I'll add this thread to the sticky thread!
... are the 240's REALLY worth this much?
merge the thread into this one, but it's got so many replies it'd be hard to do...
I could copy just my first two post in here though.

I shall get everybody started....

"Runs on 20% Soydiesel and gets about 38-40 MPG". Boy, there is sure a reason why this place is called "Quality Motors"!

1983 Mercedes Benz 240D Diesel 4 Speed manual Trany Runs on 20% Soydie

great start, but the problem I see with the way you saved the pic is you copied it to your photobucket account, and then pasted it into the reply post...
a better way is uploading to the PeachParts server like I did in my post. I tried to upload your pic, only to find it's too large to upload. so now we need to add the rule pics must be resized to fit in the upload section!
