If I read one more description about a car having "breaks" or a boat that has a "haul" I am going to punch my cat. Third grade English people, THIRD GRADE ENGLISH!!!!

My personal worse is "needs fixed" because of how many otherwise well-spoken people think it's totally fine to leave some words out.

Burrito Enthusiast and I once searched for both spellings in our local CL. Camaro had 21 hits. Camero had over 40!

I never understood why people put as few words as possible into CL listings.. not like you get charged by the letter like your local newspaper

I have found fewer words are better.

My favorite ad from the past couple months was a Fox mustang owner repeatedly saying the car is original and then listing all the mods he's done to it.

I too have no problem with you punching your cat. I'm a dog person...

Given the quality of pictures on many of those ads, I dare say they don't even look at the car(s).

Dual vs. Duel. The one exhaust pipe is not challenging the honor of the other.
