swb85 is right. There's so many problems with the description you don't know where to start. But I do know that if you want to assume this guy is honest and the engine is great and the $700 price is fair, you're taking a huge leap of faith. But if you think your mileage can't be much worse that what you get now, try it and see. I'd bet 4 to 5 mpg.

Anyway, I didn't post anything to be rude or anything. Honestly, it's just flat out fishy as hell and I think he's trying to get one over on you because of your age. I'd hate to see you spend that money and end up with something that ran poorly.
