Maybe somebody could get him to cuss, then squeal like a pig about it.

Maybe one could declare that one is mentally unstable. That seems to work.

Must have been a squid as he curses like a sailor!!

He had another high caliber pm to me, but I'll try not to dog-pile too badly. I feel badly for him as we are the same age, and I'd hate to be in that position, but I just have to believe I would comport myself differently.

Now, first and foremost, nothing sickens me more than somebody pulling out the "I served my country" card to justify being a jerk-weed! It cheapens your service brethren to mis-use your veteran status that way! And then you pull out the trump card: "how many wars have you fought in, *******????" You demonstrate clearly that fighting in the war doesn't make the man!

Forget the car, don't cheapen your service to this country, and your legacy to your family. Would these posts and messages be a good example for your son to read??
I do hope things get better for you, and I'm sorry you're going through these times.
Good luck to you!
Jimmy

So If I sound somewhat bitter, So be it, If you dont like my attitude, KISS MY ASS! I'm a 20 year military retiree, and I didnt serve my country for half my life to end up in this position at age 47. In case you missed the first line ,KISS MY ASS!! How many wars have you fought in, *******???

I think you guys have worn him out. I've gotten no response from my request for pictures, maintenance records, and whether windows,A/C, and sunroof work

Don't worry, he'd have to find 'em first, and really, did he seem that capable???

Tyler, there's no helping some people. No matter how nice you try to be their cup is always half empty. Oh well... it's kinda funny to see how worked up people can get over stupid things.

When I'm on a forum I always try to act like I would in person. Seems like you do too. I'm sure that if you were face to face with this guy he wouldn't be in such a tizzy. *shrugs*

This is why I dislike selling stuff on this forum.

Its a freaken 30 year old $2,500 car. If your looking for more info get his number and call him.

The ads not that bad, I have seen far worse.

Tyler, I'm sure you meant to help but your first post on that thread DID come off a bit wise-assed. You didn't deserve the abuse, but it sounds like the guy's world is falling apart. Good luck to him.
