mean truck photo
 
http://images.craigslist.org/0101120...bbf000aa7c.jpg

Saw this photo on a CraigsListing selling a truck.

The photo is just there to show how BIG the truck is.

Isn't this like demeaning Rhode Island by saying how many times bigger another state is than Rhode Island?


"Look at my truck! It's gotta be at least 4.6 Geo Metros!"....

believe it or not, how big it is is a selling point in my county. If it's already got a lift, by golly that'll save a lot in labor time!!!

I wonder if he's selling that festiva? :D

I asked people in Houston about why they had this, since being from a cities in the northeast you don't see it too much, and they almost all told me it was for "muddin." A term I had never heard before, actually; normally people here call it something along the lines of "four wheelin." Then you ask them how often they get to go since it seems like it's well over a hundred miles before you can find dirt, and they almost always say "maybe twice a year." That doesn't seem worth it to me at all... Granted a few people said they want to sit above traffic.

Ha... It may be big.... But that Geo is blocking is path forward!

That competition = Stalemate.

Next time someone sells a metro they should take a picture just like that except with each vehicle at the gas station getting filled up, :)

I disagree! The truck is blocking the path forward of the economy car!

Lets just hope the truck isn't getting ready to "monster truck it" over the econo!

Naw, I've never seen someone in a truck... in a parking lot, decide they want a compact car's parking spot and just part over it... Truck drivers may use a lot of gas... but I doubt they're dumb enough to even attempt to drive over someone else's car...

That little car is a Ford Festiva.
