Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler THE best classified ad ever, bar none!

Well, here it is!

It would be slightly more believable if he wasn't talking about a Nissan Xterra. Or something with 265HP that weighs 5-6000lbs.

OK, that was funny.

Heh, it has an automatic transmission. Poseur.

Mildly amuseing. I think Real80sman could appreciate it, with the Tom Selleck reference and Hammer pants etc. .

Well, sufficed to say that we don't all share my inane sense of humor.

My favorite part was "Burmese-roundhouse-sphincter-kick with a follow up three fingered eye-jab. Would it hurt? Hell yeah"

I can only imagine he was well on his way through a 12 pack before he started writing. I wonder how many hits he is getting?

Fred, if you're talking about his advertisement, it's got another 100 views since I first saw it. My sister sent it to my friends and I on Facebook, so I imagine it'll be passed around on it. If you mean actual responses, I would venture to bet he's received a few. He lives in Douro-Dummer (or the dumber part of Douro), which is just on the outskirts of Peterborough - a 5-10 minute drive from me. Here we say they're woven from the same cloth, so I could see a few taking him seriously .

Quite funny, but I liked the punchline the best....$18000 for an '04 Xterra, now THAT'S hilarious!!

LOL. Adrian, RESPECT the '04 Xterra!

Hey Jay, you better watch it or I'll dig out my baggy "parachute pants" for the get together in September!
LOL - If I would have been on the ball, I would have grown my mullet back for the occasion as well.

That was pretty funny. I bet he ends up taking something very close to the $9,000 figure that produces such a voilent reaction in him.

Agreed.

I may give him a call for fun as he'd probably be entertaining to talk to; postulating that his ad is exemplary of his demeanor. Heck, there's a good chance I know the guy.

His ad reminds me of some of the over-the-top reviews for certain products on Amazon: Tuscan whole milk, Zubaz pants, and the Three Wolf Moon shirt. Also the Uranium ore and the Badonkadonk Land Cruiser/tank.

Those are damn funny! I especially like the second review for Tuscan whole milk......... too funny! Brilliant stuff IMO.

I must have been in a bad mood the first time I read the original ad, I am appreciating it more now and I really like those reviews, very creative.

wheelz, I finally found the link for the JL421 Badonakadonk Land Cruiser Tank. I think you will be well-pleased with the reviews:

Recommended only for use against Lithuanians.

I like the customized Obamkadonk, but I think they meant room for 5 midgets not 5 adults.

"Oh, it also has plenty of room for groceries, and if you need to like move a loveseat or something it'll fit if you use a little bungee cord."

BAHAHAHA ......... Priceless!

Thanks J.P!

Hilarious Wheelz!

I've been on the trails with a few XTerras and I have to admit, they hold their own compared to most stock SUVs. Too bad the frames seemed prone to crack on them. Otherwise, they are a Manly if ugly vehicle.

Say what you will about Toyota but my truck sports a brand new 'free' frame, springs, exhaust etc. just because it was on a list where it was known to have received some Very rust prone steel for the frames for a couple of years. My Buddy went back to Nissan with an absolutely never off roaded, two year old, under warranty Xterra with a seriously cracked frame on the drivers side where the motor compartment meets the cab. Despite returning a couple of times armed with a pile of Internet evidence of similar complaints and consumer reports and all he could get was a "You abused it, you pay for it." attitude. They also said it was unrepairable. After a few letters from his lawyer and a summons, they said they would fix it and ended up giving him a new vehicle.
