Hello. I am considering purchasing a car off of ebay. Has anyone ever done this? I currently have 3 cars. A 2002 Porsche Turbo with 10,000 miles, speed yellow. A 2001 White Tahoe jacked up with 40' lift and mud tires which I am selling tomorrow and my wife has a 2003 Mercedes ML. My question is how do you like this car? I am 21 years old with a 2 month year old son, just a few things to keep in mind. Please lend your eternal knowledge to me. Thanks.

I love those old trucks, but that seems kinda steep to me.

Hey, where in Florida re you anyway?

Its a beauty, looks a little bit steep though.

However, this car is not safe for a child.

edit: talking about your son, not you

Unless you plan on showing the car, it would be stupid to pay that much for an old, pristine Bronco. Since it sounds like it'll be your daily rider (assuming since your Porsche has so little mileage), you'll just beat it up. But hey, if you got the money to blow, to each his own.

I'm in Jacksonville. Is that too much for a car that I would drive 4 days a week and have no intention on showing? Thanks Again.

PS Are you in FLorida Jake? What part?

is says the reserve isn't met so the px would be pushing towards $20k no? There's more than $8-10k of mods in there so it's not priced out of range.

Yea. I don't even get it. Was this some goofy way of calling bs on the guys cars?

not calling bs, just removing the douchebagness of the orignal boast.
