First off this is a rant/ vent after a bad morning.
Little back story
Just before fourth of July I bought a new to me jeep xj. I used some savings to pay for it. I already had a xj. Hadn't been driving it since it needed some work. The new jeep needed a few things which I took from my older xj. Fuel pump and wiper motor and linkage. Is all it needed but I removed my k&n intake, steering box brace, electric fan and oil catch can as well as the rear tj flares I had on it and front custom bumper. As I wanted these items for the newer xj and wanted to keep cost down since like everyone else is on a budget. At least till I win the lottery. Lol

So after that I put my older jeep for sale since its a will help recoup most of the savings I used. I have posted it up for sale on Craigslist, offerup, had a friend post it to facebook since I don't do that book of faces thing. I had it up for around 1000. Listed it as a wheeler project. Listed all the pros of it and all the cons. Trying to to be straight forward and transparent.Then dropped it to 950. Got an offer of 500 (lowball) I asked 800? No answer no haggling. Time goes by drop it to 850. Nothing so dropped it to 750. Get a response for 650. Asked if they could do 700 since I just dropped it down from 850. They couldn't since they had to rent a trailer. Had some other offers sort of. One kid offered a shotgun and an x-box one. And one guy wanted but didn't read my ad. And didn't realize he couldn't drive it home and needed some work.

So then yesterday I post it to letgo another saleing app like offerup. Posted it for the current price of 750. It got all sorts of interest 5 people asked about it. I responded. Nothing till this morning.

And now to my rant. Well one kid gave me an offer of 650. I said no thanks instead maybe haggling. The kid insults me. And says come on dude its a hunk of s**t. Which didn't settle with me at all. I told him he could go have fun with himself (just not as nice as I'm writing here) you p.o.s. and that he has no idea of what is all done to it. And why did he offer money for it if he thinks its a hunk of s**t?. He replies with how about I give him my address so he can beat my a** and steal my jeep. To build it better. I could have went back down to this kids level but instead I reported him and blocked him.

I know its not a nice gloss paint xj that you see at the mall or on the trail. It was a cheap 13 rattle can camo jobs after seeing five red lifted xjs in 20 minutes on a walk to the parts store (its was red). I've had this xj for 5 year daily driven it for most of it and had good times wheeling it with friends and my girlfriend. Even let her drive it which I regret since I had to lift her zj after words. It has even won a cherokee of the month last year on another forum I'm on.

But insulting a person because they refused your offer that you gave for their jeep they are selling is disrespectful. This isn't facebook where all the trolls and know it alls hang out. ( one reason for not being on facebook). I think 700-750 is a fair price for what this xj is and could be with a little work. I seen the potential in it when I first bought it. Which it needed work then. People aren't going to hand you thing cause you insult them. It pays to play. I wish I could afford to keep it. I have a son that getting closer to driving age and would like to keep it so we could go wheeling together when he is old enough and I can pass my offroad knowledge over. But I just can't right now. Well that's it I'm done my venting rant is over. Hope who ever reads this has a great day and a wonderful holiday weekend.
