    Craigslist buyer: How would you deal with this?

    I advertise vehicles on San Antonio CL fairly often and always get the "Where's Kerrville" question. I make it clear in the ad that they must come to Kerrville to see the vehicle but they always ask... "Can you meet me at I-10 & 1604 area". I just say "no" ... lol

    Craigslist buyer: How would you deal with this?

    I only do face to face cash sales at a local business with cameras on the parking lot. I conceal carry and my wife is always "within range" should anything get weird. I recently had a CL scammer text response for a vehicle I was selling. They kept asking me to call number other than the one...

    Bought a Jeep... found this site

    Kerrville up Hwy 16 to Fredericksburg and then Hwy 290 to JC. It's 57 miles for me and takes just under an hour doing the speed limit. Never really any traffic when I'm on the road.

    After reading everyone's posts and doing some research... I believe I got a better deal than I originally thought. The Rubicon was not listed for sale. My son found it parked at a coworkers house and asked about it. It was a secondary use vehicle for him and he offered to sell it for $8000...

    I crawled all over and under it. Everything underneath is nice and dry, no rust issues or leaks. I'm the 3rd owner now... it's been in the Texas hill country all it's life.

    Bought a Jeep... found this site

    I'm a car guy but have never been a Jeep guy. I recently picked up a 2003 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. It has a strait 6 with a 5 speed tranny and runs and drives really well. Jeeps seem to be pretty expensive around here so I figure I got a decent deal for $8K plus the previous owner even threw...
