1/3 ton huh? Not mine!

Saw this and kinda made me laugh. No offense to anyone if it's a members but 1/3 ton? I know, I know it's probably just a typo lol but are those tires after the burnout in the video the one's still on the truck for sale too? Don't get me wrong looks and sounds like a nice truck. I just don't get the whole "watch me beat my truck and then hope you will buy it bit" (not saying I never have or never will smoke tires but not in an attempt to sell a vehicle) but that is just me and my own personal opinion I guess.

Re: 1/3 ton huh? Not mine!

Yeah makes me want to call and tell him I want to buy it. Then call back and say never mind I saw your little video of you being dumb enough to put a video of you beating it up lol. Oh well nice burnout though.

Maybe he calls it a 1/3 ton since it apparently has a t bird IRS.

Re: 1/3 ton huh? Not mine!

You can't fix stupid. Everything about this is. That's gotta be the dumbest place to be to shoot a burnout video on a narrow lane,burnouts are stupid,and it sure isn't a way to impress a potential buyer. I imagine it had a scoop before he lost control doing a burnout and mashed the front end.

He may just type like me and just fat fingered a 3 instead of a 2.

You notice that he didn't mention anything about the 2 bald tires on the rear!

Re: 1/3 ton huh? Not mine!

I think he said that cause one of the tires needs to be replaced leaving the other three ok for use.
