Is there a for-sale forum for non-BMW cars/parts here on BP? If not, his post would technically be OT there.

I honestly don't know the answer, since I don't see classifieds on my forum view (bmwi.bimmerpost.com)...nor would I buy anything if it was listed, because I'm not shopping for anything on a forum that costs more than a half-eaten bologna sandwich. Talk about run-on sentence.....

I don't think there is any rule against posting non BMW cars in the classified, and I see an Audi listed on the first page as well. Here's the link for the classifieds because you know you want to look. I'm sure you have *some* disposable cash lying around right?

I mean it is primarily BMW's because...well...this is a BMW forum and so in fairness, that's the best place to try to sell your BMW since anyone here is probably interested in BMW's...just like the best place to sell this A220 would *probably* be on a Mercedes forum...

But you could post the Mighty Dodge - maybe you'll get a bite. What did you list it for btw?

At any rate, I quickly looked this guy up and perhaps didn't go back as far as you, because I only went back a year. Every single one of his posts I saw was hawking something...not these posts you speak of of his new wheels / rides etc.

And what I did notice, is that he managed to get every single one of those other posts in the correct forum - not OT. Maybe he wore out his welcome there, I don't know, but OT isn't the place. And I daresay he's learned that now if he chooses to come back and read this thread.

Maybe he should try posting this on the political/religion forum next time

$17K, which is below KBB for a pre-DPF and pre-DEF Cummins 4x4.

We may just sit on it for a few months, until winter approaches and 4x4 buying season opens up. It is costing me nothing but insurance to own it at this point, and we actually used it for a 400-mile road trip over the weekend.

The only reason why I want to sell it is that a used Mercedes Sprinter diesel van would suit our current road trip needs better than the truck, since I have been forced into retirement from competition and don't need to tow the race car hauler on weekends. Our next planned trip is in December, so there's no huge rush.....

It's not spam, its just not in the best place. The off topic rules do not exclude so far as I can tell, but there is a rule about posting something in the correct forum. Since the sale of a car has a spot already, it's not the best idea to post it in Off Topic.

Here is the rule: 7) Post in the correct forum this is especially important for our new members. Our community is divided into different forums for a reason, it helps to keep the posts organized and on-topic. "

For everyone else, You guys are so butt hurt over a simple post says a lot about Yourselves :

It's interesting. First, you post an A-class in the BMW off-topic forum when you know that there is a specific classified forum. Then, you react when off topic forum members react to your post.

While its true that there are no rules specifically prohibiting posting a car sale, even a Mercedes on this off topic forum, can you say you are really surprised by the reaction from this known-to-be-tough crowd?

If your goal is to sell the car, maybe you want to move the post to classifieds. Calling out people as butt hurt, even if you are correct, isn't going to help get the car sold.

All the best to you in getting that car sold. There's a buyer out there somewhere. Good luck.
