It's tough selling a car privately these days.
I couldn't even get $500 for a 2006 Toyota Corolla LE. Went to the dealership and they gave me $2500 for it.

Ended up selling it to the dealership i work at and we sold it within a week | Everyone is buying on credit, signs of tough economic times ahead! I had my 1968 Mustang for sale and had numerous inquiries about whether I would accept a payment plan/installments.

I'll jump on the snow photo train. Traction off and empty private cut-blocks makes for a good time. Maybe a lift and 33's to keep from getting stuck in the future... IMG_6339 by Michael M, on Flickr

Obligatory pre-rinsing off the road grime shot, I'm driving it in the winter for the first time since my wife needs my Jeep for a week. The AWD system is a blast on snow and ice.
