Hello Qbn friends...
Do you live in the NYC metropolitan area? If so, do you need/want a car? I just bought a new one and have my 1995 Geo Tracker to literally give away. My friend wanted it to go to LA with, so I didn't do a dealer trade in, but now he's flaked on me and said "Dude, I got to move to Austin right now for a theater show and don't have the cash to pick up insurance on the car...". So I have a car sitting in my mom's driveway that I'd rather give to somebody who can use it than junk it.
It's in relatively good condition for a 15 year old car with approx. 150k on it. Just replaced the starter. Tires are about a year old. It's automatic, four wheel drive, convertible (I have an aftermarket hardtop on it now). A CD player that works if you bang it a few times. Great heater, no A/C. The transmission is starting to be a bit wonky, where it can't seem to find 2nd gear when it first starts up, but otherwise it's solid. Never really had any major mechanical problems, just a bit beat up from being street parked in NYC for a few years. Like I said I'd just give it to somebody for the usual "$1 and other considerations."
The insurance on it runs about $400 a year or so. Just trying to get it off my hands by the 15th so I don't have to pick up the insurance on it for more time than I have to.
OK, it's no Leica camera or Mac book, but you also don't have to photoshop a wee astronaut into a picture for it. You just gotta say "Hey BlueOne, that'd be awesome I'd love to take it off your hands by Wednesday!"

arent the Geo Trackers the mini "jeeps" that flip over??
- Thats what makes it special.MrDinky
- I've driven it for 12 years. Only flipped it..what...twice?TheBlueOne
- No, no..I kid! It will flip it only if you drive it like a 15 year old 'roided guido who thinks it's a souped up Civic or something.TheBlueOne

TBO seriously... by the way this is going... whoever you give it to make them sing a waver... "THE BLUE ONE will not be responsable in case of flippage"
