better than most I've seen

[charger01]

I just had to say.  I see this in ads all the time when people are trying to sell their cars.  "the cars in better shape than most I've seen".  That tells me it's an enormous pos.  And makes me wonder about some of the cars they have seen. lol  It's better than most i've seen just needs the typical charger metal work???

People just need to stick to the facts.  Besides, unless the buyer is blind deal-killing flaws will be in plain sight and impossible to ignore once the car is looked over.  I don't see the need to pump up a Charger sale anyway; rust heaps that need a new piece of everything still go for 5 figures, don't they?

"An enormous pos" Covers alot of ground. To me (One who does his own work), I have no problem buying a wreck and trying to put it back together, but for someone who has to pay out the a$$ for everything they want done including bodywork, it can cause the sale to go downhill quick.

Sure it's better than most THAT GUYS ever seen,b ut maybe there's someone looking that has only seen high end cars? Maybe it's all in the eye of the beholder?...

I once knew a girl that stunk LESS than most others that I knew.
I had a girlfriend that cheated LESS than others.
My first wife wasn't nearly as fat as some other women I have seen at Wal Mart...

The guy I bought mine from told me over the phone 'There's some rust in the floorpans, but it ain't the worst I've ever seen'.   LOLthat gave me almost no indication of how bad it was, cause I'm pretty sure everyone at some point has seen cars that are three or 4 rainy seasons away from becoming fertilizer.

That's when I sent my brother over and told him to check for excess bondo and take a close look at the frame rails    Luckily the car wasn't a goner, even though the trunk pan is GONE.    I'm wondering what the worst he'd ever seen looked like?
