you know what i mean.
i know its not stop and go like in a city, so theres probably less wear and tear on the car, but you cant say that all the miles you've put on your car are highway miles.

My all time favorite is the cars that have an extensive list of mods(preferably a turboed or a S/Ced car) and says its have never been raced/beaten on

I like the race gas numbers. "800HP Supra!" = 500HP Supra.

What I love is at car dealerships, they always say "The old owner was a school teacher/middle aged" blah blah blah.

Or how the car "just came in yesterday"

I saw the same car at alot for over a month and when I stopped to look at it they said it just came in the day before and was owned by a older lady that used it for dotors and grocery store trips only. It was a modded fox body stang.

"over $xx,xxx invested"

Cars are NOT investments, they lose money as soon as they roll off the lot and do not regain value unless it is a desirable/classic car. Your $3,000 civic with "$5,000 invested" is still only worth 3k if your lucky. The ad should state " Over $X,XXX wasted".

me and dk1989 had a big fight about this and he STILL wouldnt admit he was wrong. i should send him this . but in all seriousness, most of the posts are right on, i wouldnt buy a car off tamparacing if it came with a bj from the sellers mom/sister/gf etc. bottom line is, this is tamparacing, not tampatakecareofyourcarandmaintainitperfectanddontr aceitorbeatonitandchecktheoilevery3000milesanddont speed etc
