Ask him where he buys his crack, and if they breed unicorns there.

i asked him if that price included the Vaseline, he just kind of gave me a dumb look and asked why, i told him for the ******* i would be getting on paying that price, i pointed out that i can buy the same year with almost a mint body for around 7,000 give or take, and that performance parts lose value once used and i couldnt justify anything close to what he wanted

I've seen four digit power level trailer queen show trucks that weren't asking anywhere near that. It's going to be for sale for a long time...
