    Jeep grand Cherokee 200,000 miles runs good .4×4..believe it may need a trans? Really Clean in side and out good tires remote start ….really looking to trade for something cool thanks….really want a project car or truck

    This one was sent in by sd, who points out that if the only picture you have of your vehicle is one where it’s strapped to a trailer AND you think it needs a transmission…

    You may not need to go to Craigslist to find a “project car.”

    Thanks, sd!

  • YSaC, Vol. 1751: Please phrase that in the form of not stupid

    And now, it’s time to play the exciting new game show, “Boat or Grill?”

    boat or….. grill NEW in box – $25 (ne metro)

    Um. That’s a grill.

    Not really all that exciting a game show, now that you mention it.

    And if you think that’s bad, wait till you try the home game.

    Thanks for playing, sd!

  • YSaC, Vol. 1749: Turns out $200 is your price for flight.

    Yesterday’s poster was selling all sorts of wacky stuff. Today’s poster? Not so much:

    Motor – $200

    condition: like new
    Robin

    Well, $200 is a pretty good deal. And there’s really only two types of motors, right?

    It could only be either this:

    or this:

    And either one of those seems like a steal for $200. Of course, my grasp of engineering may be a little fuzzy, but it’s still better than Robin’s grasp of Craigslist.

    Thanks for the link, sd!

    You know what’s always sounded like fun? Loading up everything I own into a motorhome and taking off. Just hitting the Eisenhower highway system, going wherever I want to go, with all the comforts of home right there behind me. These modern motorhomes are just amazing — they’re super efficient with space, and some of the newer ones are downright luxurious.

    The one thing I’d be afraid of is that in windy conditions, they’re pretty much a giant rolling billboard getting blown around on the road. All that surface area just catching the wind — it’s got to be pretty hard to keep it going in a straight line.

    So imagine my excitement about this:

    PODEYOM MICK TWO FEET TALL! -$20

    THIS IS A NICE FIND A MIKE THAT MOVES AROUND! CALL ME CHRIS HAS A HAVEY BOTOM! CALL ME CHRIS AT [redacted]

    “Podeyom Mick” is clearly an anagram for “My Cooked Imp”*, which is obviously referring to Mike, who is only two feet tall but agile. I’m not sure why we’re cooking Mike, though. He seems a little … wiry. Seems to me as though Chris is the one who has been hitting the food trough.

     

    *Or “Icky Demo Mop”.

     

    Thanks, BianchiSound!
