What's up with this stuff?

Post by ColonelPanic »

Has anybody ever noticed the crazy listings you'll find on the 'net? I've done a lot of looking at new and used cars out there, and I've found myself doing a bit of laughing to boot. Quote, originally posted by Some listing on cars.com »Power, Windows, Locks, Stereo, Radio, Compact, Player, Alloy, Wheels, Conditioning, Steering, Wheel, Cruise, Control, Window, Wipers, Driver, Passenger, Front, Occupant, Mirrors, Cloth, Upholstery, Sunroof, Cover, Outlet, Clock, Odometer, Tachometer, Interval, Defroster, Remote, Console, Vanity, Mirror, Bucket, Seats, Moldings, Child-Proof, Lights, AM/FMMost of it is self explanatory but some of this stuff just makes me sit back and go "wha?" The above car is a great deal, not only does come with a driver and passenger, but it will also steer! Yes indeedy, something is lost along the way when they're setting up these ads. lol!

Looks like it also comes with two radios and a compact for the ladies. I wonder where the cruise goes too? I have always wanted to see the Bahamas. But they can keep the bucket though, I already have one.

Better be careful with it, though - comes with a Play-ah. Keep an eye on the wife!

And not just a compact...there's a vanity too! Not that I would ever use either one...LOL.It's pretty cool that it comes with wheels and seats and stuff...those are some nice bonuses. And a front. Wonder if the occupant is separate from the driver and passenger?

Good to see it comes with a window. Always helpful. But just one? And they child-proofed the whole thing too!

Eventhough it is funny they probably had a good reason for doing it. I think on cars.com you can search by keyword. So he is getting his car out there by making every possible think a keyword. Looks retarded, but is probably good because his car comes up on every search. Of course nobody will buy it because he sounds like a idiot.
