People with Crappy Cars

..... of the whiskey dents, the bald tires, and the effed-up alignment (curbs will do that to ya).

Whiskey dents huh? I don't think I have ever seen a whiskey dent before. Pics?

Whiskey dents are the dents put in the car after you drive home drunk.

And as much as it breaks your li'l pea-pickin' heart, think of it this way... if you were shopping for a car and came across that one, would you really even THINK about buying it???

Actually, for the price I was quoted, yes. I listed the things wrong with it and it just needs a little TLC imho. Plus I need a DD, plus it can haul anything I need without having to remove the passenger seat, plus I know what condition it's in. I'd sooner buy it than a cheap minivan that I don't know anything about, at least I know exactly what's wrong with this one. I'm really considering it, he needs a pickup anyway.

Call me an idiot, but I think it's the way I was raised that I find it hard to ignore something like this. Some of you wouldn't understand...

It's like trying to explain being a gun nut to a Brit. I've been attempting that on CR.net

Yeah, I've tried explaining that to my father-in-law with much the same results! No matter what I say, I'm this guy -->

I would, but for the old saying that people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
