Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of ****. That's all it is. Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time.

Then you track down CARid and they deny there ever was a warranty.

This YKYDAJ/J can be also you know you TOW a junker when nobody wants to borrow your trailer.
Used to have a newish, nice trailer. People kept borrowing it almost daily. Nowadays, have an old, ugly, rattling and banging trailer. Gets borrowed maybe once or twice a year.

One person has asked to borrow one of my cars in the almost six years that I have owned them.
"It doesn't have power steering"
"Okay..."

I learned how to drive on cars without power steering, and some were not too smaller than your Civic (if any smaller at all). |

That's quite extreme. Didn't see anything like that not even when an uncle of mine used to drive only junkers beaten the hell out of. |

They are trolling, actual condition of car doesn't matter. If your car is backed in to your drive or if it hasn't move in a while you will likely get an ad. My neighbours car which may set for two or three weeks often gets them as do I, mine is always backed in. |

Still better than setting fire to the jalopies as it happened a few times here in Brazil. I remember when there was a gang setting fire to older cars randomly in the outskirts of São Paulo, even if they were parked inside their owners' property. |

Where's the point in that? Has to be some sort of control /intimidation plot.
