Anyone need, or know someone who needs a vehicle?

[Bugeater]

I was going to give my old minivan to someone here on the Planet who was in desperate need of a vehicle, but apparently that person is unable to pick it up, and I can't leave it where it's sitting forever.

So here's the deal...if someone here, preferably a regular, needs it, or knows someone who does, they can have it.

The only conditions are that you will have to convince me that whomever takes it is going to actually try to fix it up and use it, and not just take it and scrap it out. I could do that, but I think the thing still has some decent life left in it. It's currently located in St Joseph so that's where it will need to be picked up, and I need to be assured that it will be picked up in a timely manner without any hassles.

Obviously if it's free, it means it has issues...but none of them at this point are fatal. The major one being that transmission has a leak, but works fine still as long as the fluid level is maintained. It needs a battery immediately. It also has an intermittent electrical issue that can be repaired by someone who knows how to follow instructions, which end of screwdriver to use, and how to use a soldering pencil. There are some other minor issues but I'll go through those if someone decides they want it.

On the flip side, it drives good and has always been a strong runner for me. I just drove it down to St Joe two weeks ago with no problems at all.

Anyone interested?

i'll add a maytag washer and dryer to this for free. wife got a new set and instead of having the delivery guys take the old ones, she thinks she's going to sell them for $50 each. they're setting on my side of the garage and my truck's sitting outside in the fucking rain.

free...just come get them. they both work fine, she just didn't like the color.

Can you run up to St Joe, grab my van, drive it back to your place and load the washer/dryer in it and bring them to me?

LMAO I can't even keep up with mine right now, we've had like 8 feet of rain in the last month, damn grass is growing like crazy.

[SAUTO]

Which end of a screwdriver are you supposed to use?

What if its got a bit on each end?

What is a soldering pencil?

What color is the van?

Does it have gas in it? If not could you send me some gas money?

How is the interior?

Any other leaks?

What color are the washer and dryer?

I drove it for four years and never died in it. :shrug:

It does have dual air bags so you should be able to crash into just about anything at full speed and walk away uninjured.

That wasn't my fault,. Some dumbass using his cell phone blasted into the side of our minivan and rolled us completely over and one. To be honest, I felt very lucky to be alive after that.

It was me and my two oldest sons. We were a block away from the daycare to pick up my other two kids. Had my youngest been in the van he may not have survived. The truck barreled right into where his car seat was.

Minivan was dubbed the party van and has plenty of use, if you find any joints or baggies hidden return them to bugeater. It still reeks in the van like a scene from Cheech and Chong the police will smell you coming a mile away.

My little brother (from Big Brothers / Big Sisters) is really in need of a vehicle. He's 20 looking for a job and not handy which means I'll have to spring for or do the repairs myself. If you think it would make it to KC without being towed I might be your Huckleberry.

Heh, no, original one with 185k on it. It might last another month, or it could last a year or more...who knows. But when it goes, the van is scrap metal. That's pretty much why I'm giving it away.

While we're giving away items...I have a wing back chair, a love seat, and a recliner to get rid of. I currently have someone who might be interested in the wing back and/or love seat, but no deals yet.

Anyone in Springfield like garage sales? I will be having one June 21-22. :)

This! Maybe not $50 each but when you deliver the the units tell them that your wife asked that they go ahead an pay you the $50 for delivery and stand there like you are waiting to get paid.


If they pay you then great! Your wife will be pissed off after her friend/co-worker informs her they didn't remember having to pay for delivery. Tell your wife it was her fault for not negotiating your time/effort into the fee.

Best case scenerio: They pay (beer money) and your wife never sets you up again!

Worse case scenerio: They don't pay, tell your wife, and your wife never sets you up again!;)

nope...they're loaded up in the truck right now and i'm making the delivery after work tonight. she's supposed to collect the $ today.
