If you look around enough, you'll find the decent deals, but at that level, you've gotta wade through a lot of sewage to find the gems.

Looking to spend $3500 to $4000
My wife's boy consumes cars. I wouldn't let her get a nicer one, on the other hand, I don't want him stuck on the side of the road either. SO it is really hard to find the right one and it takes time. Wadding through the mess.
Plus he's 6 foot 6 inches tall and doesn't fit in every car. It's hard.
I am a pretty reasonable dude. never dis respectful and never drive others cars unless helping diagnose a symptom or test driving inspection. On a test drive inspection the car needs to be driven not coddled. We would all like to think the car has been coddled all it's life and perhaps it has...but whatever, I don't need the front end coming apart at 60 mph because the guy didn't let me properly test it.
F...no I din't buy it. I would never buy from this guy, he's got things to hide, some with black Krylon and others some other way.
I went straight to the internet to see all the reviews on him and found that he's kicking people out of the office for asking for a mechanical inspection.
I too think he's tired of the car life, but he fit's the image with a silly hat on and spray paint can in his hand.
I'm looking on craigslist too and that presents all sorts of new problems. There are scams everywhere. Time wasters and some real roaches spit shinned up nicely.
That's why I wanted to give a car dealer on the bolder highway a try.
We'll see
