I do agree that you can't fix stupid. As long as the buyer knows the risk & is willing to take the chance-well- as you said- good luck. The challenge I'm talking about is when a truck is misrepresented by a bottom feeder. I've had multiple customers in the past few years purchase lifts on line after I've advised them of the scammers out there. In the end none of them saved any money after my service calls were completed bringing these hunks of junk back to serviceable condition.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
