I've bought several cars, trucks and motorcycles where the previous owner used some of these descriptions. Time proven for sure!

Re: Conversion Chart for Car Ads
I love that list! (Seen it before somewhere?)

This list is older. “Ran When Parked” isn’t on there.

Every time we see a dead animal on the side of the road, I say "running when parked" to my teenage kids.Kenny Edmondson wrote: ↑Tue Jan 07, 2020 8:59 amThis list is older. “Ran When Parked” isn’t on there.
