Hey Dunedigger,  if a ride thru the country side is what your looking for than by all means take it, I found a set of worn 35/14.50 15 swampers that the guy said were in good shape and would hold air. When I got there an hour later the tire was torn to shreads where it seats on the rim and seals the air in! Looked like they pried it off the rim with a peice of angle iron sharpened like a razor. One tire had an 18" section of it torn down to the nylon and steel chording. He had the nerve to repeat to my face they would be fine and hold air fine!!!!!! I almost bought them to have the satisfaction of owning what I was getting ready to shove up his rearend!!!!!!

Some people out there have a slightly skewed veiw of things!
UH-OH  I'M GONNA NEED A BIGGER BANDAID!!!!!

Ok, I talked this guy into sending me some pics.  He sounded very irretated because I wouldn't take his word for it.  And guess what?  The bumper is no where near what I want or what he said it was.  The back side is all rust and the air dam is cracked and bent up.  The push bars are rusted into the front side.  What a joke.  Glad I saved the fuel.  I wish people could just be honest about this stuff, or is it just me.
