Pretty hodge-podge for the price IMO.

vectorit · 08-18-2009, 05:36 PM

Is that a giant tow chain wrapped around the brake booster?

70rs/ss · 08-18-2009, 05:53 PM

Did he say South Central, probably part of the security system?!

Maybe a pit bull comes with it too.
No A/C belt, so we know that doesn't work.

Wish he kept it a 4x4. He probably keeps a pistol under the seat, they all do over there. My dad's buddy had a rental house in Compton and was diriving over to it one day and got into an accident and rolled his 4Runner and lost a finger in the open sunroof. He had his 357 under the seat. The cops brought it to him in the hospital, no questions asked. Nice service, huh?

i was just passing it along. this is not a thread to diss-cus the guys truck. not a thread to diss-cus where its located either. i live in WATTS and have a nice Blue pit bull a 357 s&m under my center consule if u guys want to diss-cus that. look at the thing and if u dont like it close the window its the x on the upper right hand corner.

when i joined the forum it was to give away some blazer parts and receive some advise, the more i read on here the more i realize that most replies are giving critizism intead of advise. im sure you guys would sell your OEM trucks for a cheap price.

I'm certain there was no offense directed towards you personally, at least speaking for myself that was the furthest from my mind.

If this Blazer is yours, then I can understand where you are coming from.

We must all be psychic about the pit bull and 357 thing. I know this is off topic but I have never owned a dog and I am also color blind (have the red, green, purple color blindness and it sucks), but is there really such a thing as a "Blue pit bull" or am I misunderstanding this terminology?

My son is almost 5 but never talks about Blues Clues. He's into Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Pirates, guns, knives, swords and anything else that shoots or cuts. I may be dense, but I assumed that there are no blue colored dogs, or maybe I just can't see them as blue due to my color blindness. Growing up, I never understood why "green" meant "go" since I could not see the green color in a green street light. It looks like a dirty white to me.

Sure ther is a such thing as a blue pit bull. I have one. His name is Ceasar and he is 5 yrs old and weighs 70 lbs. Even though he's big as hell and looks mean, he's a puss and scared of his own shadow. Their color is a bluish-gray coat.

What advice are you looking for that we critized??? I cannot find in any of your posts where you asked for advice and we made fun of you. I'm confused.

OP said it was a "nice find" and he was "just passing it along". I assume he only wanted positive comments from us that concur with his assessment of the rig as a "nice find." No advice, comments or opinions were requested. We could not make fun of him since he he claims this is not his rig. At worst, we made fun of the seller's rig and the area it is located in. OP should not be offended if it is not his rig.

Oh, I agree. Here is the thing though. If a person wants others to look at a vehicle he should expect others to point out things that might be missed unless they are pointed out.

I mean, if someone had not pointed out that a chain was wrapped around the brake booster, I might have missed it. I am thankful for that poster to have mentioned it. Kind of like I think I noticed that the center hump looked like it seemed to be missing. There are questions a person can then ask the seller, BEFORE he travels out to see the truck.

The things other notice about the truck are things that can be an advantage to me and a bonus of being part of this site, if I was interested in that truck that was for sale.

When you put a link up, you can expect people to give their opinions on it, positive or negative.

Longhorn Man · 08-18-2009, 08:56 PM

if its his, then he shouldn' be posting it.
Opinions will always be posted, and it is to e expected. Honestly, i don't even see anything said to get anyone wound up.

Right on brother.

Looks like a turd to me. For that kind of money.

Probably need that chain to tow it home. Sort of a "bonus" gift.

Longhorn Man · 08-18-2009, 09:28 PM

**kev2809** · 08-18-2009, 09:30 PM
