You see that correctly, I spelled it CamEro! I browse the interwebs a lot and all too often find a listing for a person wanting to sell their prized Camero....ummmm... I know everybody has seen this. How can there be this many stupid people who are unable to simply spell the type of car they have correctly? An obscure brand or name would be different but CAMARO is literally written all over the cars. Most owners even take pictures of the word Camaro and still continue to spell it wrong with an E! Is this a joke or what?!
Here are just a few examples of craigslist wonders from my local area:

Knowing all the common typos, you can often scoop up something quick.
When I was looking for my last motorcycle I had searches for Road King, as well as:
Roadking
Raod King
Raodking
I found one listed for a couple of grand below what he should have been selling it for. Because of his mistake, I probably was the only one calling him that day.
I've heard stories of people getting some pretty cheap stuff on ebay because no one else was bidding on them.

This is why I like Mastengs!
The Challangur and Camero guys are too embarrassing...

It's a safe bet that more Prius drivers than Camaro drivers can spell the name of their own car correctly.

I think I may have been scared of what Majestic Rod might turn up with that one.

it gets annoying really quick and usually when I find an ad on Craigslist like that its usually a pile of junk that's way over priced. I guess people spell it like it sounds but man I hate its

I've seen "Toyota Camrey" advertised quite a few times, too.

At least they know what kind of car it is...I always like the ever descriptive
You know, the, "Toyota 4 door" type listing. The model is a surprise when you get there. Hell it's a surprise if it's even a Toyota with 4 doors!

Even that doesn't make sense in this case. It sounds like CAM-ARROW The E just has no place lol

YES. Searching according to the misspelling has helped me greatly with parts hunting.
