I wanted to look away. Really did. But couldn't. Not for 21 pages.

I liked the limo and the postal dragster - I admire the creativity. Don't mind those with nothing but horrifying wheels ... I guess because I know they can easily be returned to something more tasteful.

As much as some of those leave a bad taste in my mouth, I do appreciate their creativity and respect their desire to be different. Even if I don't like it.

"AC needs Freon"
Why doesn't he just say the ac doesn't work?
Ya know, this is a pet peeve. When somebody selling a vehicle, a supposedly easy fix for something should be taken care of before the sale. It increases the value and the vehicle sells quicker. I sold an F-250 in Y2K. Its A/C was low on freon - I friggin' spent the $70 to have it professionally re-filled. Then I could demonstrate a perfect vehicle - it sold in 2 days for asking price, no hassles, no quibbles.
 
I always suspect there is more broken than that but they give a cheap, quick reason it isn't working instead of the hard, expensive fix it really needs.

So true. When I was shopping for my current TJ, some of the things I would run into would blow my mind. I would literally show up with a trailer and cash just to find the “perfect” TJ was much less than. Simple stuff like the tc would not go into 4wd or the AC was not blowing cold. I would get excuses like “it blew cold last time I used it”.
