You’ve found in a used car you or a friend has purchased?
I found a steak knife hidden under the rear seats of my previously owned:
A. Miata
B. Lexus IS300
C. GTO
Nope, you’re wrong. It was under the rear seats of my IS300. Anyone who knows how an IS300 rear seat works knows this was probably a hidden weapon. I dared not put it under black light. I threw it away and tried to forget it ever happened.

I found some unfired .22LR ammo in my 4x4 Dodge Ram behind the rear seat. In a weird way, I expected this, and may have been more surprised had I NOT found ammunition in my used Ram.

The Mustang Lemons car has to be the strangest I’ve had to deal with. We found dried puke in the back floorboard, still wet puke in the cargo area, $8.47 in change along with an inspirational bookmark UNDER the carpet. And lots and lots of cockroaches.

In the back seat of my friend’s 9-3.

Empty bottles of Xanax and Prozac in my Infiniti. Also, Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III and some Rihanna CD.

I am a detailer at a car dealership and I found a rotten cucumber in the storage compartment of the back of a honda pilot

This would make a good front page QOTD.

True but it could have been the worst if I’d gotten caught driving the truck and not known about them (I’d had it about 6 months before I found them). And I’d driven it through places like MA, NJ, NYC, where I’m pretty sure it would have been illegal as hell to have that stuff.

Oh, I got a better one. Same truck I mentioned in my other comment.
I loaned my truck to a guy I was in the Navy with. He was interested in buying it, and his car was in the shop, and he told me he needed to get off base to run some errands. I didn’t have any plans that evening so I loaned it to him, let him have an extended test drive.
Next morning I go out and find 4 condom wrappers in the truck... and the fuel gauge is on E. I was not a happy camper.

Seen a lot of stuff left behind in trade-ins at the dealerships I work for, but the worst was a big puddle of dried dog diarrhea in the back of a Honda CR-V.

Car ended up being a total shitbox too, he should of known when he came across that CD.

Kittens. Mom had them in the trunk and was not around or bailed when we scooped up the car.

I found a pack of blue “custom made” condoms in my Wrangler. I didn't even know (or want to know) that was a thing.

I found a mouse nest in the glove box of a ‘93 Legacy wagon I bought super cheap at an auction. I used to see the mouse run from under the dash, and into the back every morning when I’d start it up. After a couple weeks, I parked it in a field with the doors open, and a bunch of mothballs in it for a few hours. Never saw the little guy again.

Including the trap, in the trunk of a Volvo I bought for $500. The guy flipping it didn’t know how to open the trunk either.

In my wife's 2011 Gold TDI we found a cd that just had 12 tracks of soothing sounds. Ocean waves, rainforest, things like that. The previous owner must have had traffic induced anxiety or something they needed to calm down from.

used condom (dried up) in my ‘95 Taurus GL. Previous owners included my great grandparents and my mom’s aunt.

I thought dried puke came standard in used Mustangs.

I once found a Nickelback CD in a Subaru that I bought once. By far worse than the underwear I found in the trunk of my M3 under the spare tire.

Moldy smashed strawberries in the seat-back pocket.

In my spare tire well, I found a printed out picture of 3 people. All in leather. Two of them on their knees and on leashes. I’m sure it was intentional.

I don’t even want to know, as I’m sure you didn’t either

The chaos that would ensue if you didn’t tell a female passenger what was about to happen when you cranked it ...

Or they had a kid that needed passing out. I’m hoping for the latter if I’m sharing roads with that person

The first question I ever asked on OPPO was a front page question last month I think. If you could have all the generations of one car what would it be? Something like that

Well the interesting thing was, he was married but his wife hadn’t moved up there yet. We were both in transient division and I never saw him again. It was very odd.

As a marriage counselor by trade, I seriously don’t want to know, then.

Ha! Never managed to get any female passengers into that hooptie. I did once have a female student refer to that car as, “Your man-purse.” I thought that was too funny to be offended by it.

three of four vacuum cleaners worth of chicken feed
bonus: when I tell that story verbally most folks misinterpret “did you say chicken FEET!?”

I would've expected to find a belle and Sebastian CD or something a little more effeminate. Hahaha

condoms luckily still in the wrappers. I ended up going over the interior a couple more times with gloves.
on a parts car a mouse nest, and the little bastard jumped out when I was removing the dash!

Oh I thought they were used! haha this changes things.. but I think my heart would stop if that happened to me! When I was at college, I was walking to class and a squirrel jumped out of a bush directly at me and in between my legs. I was listening to music and my delayed reaction/paniced jump was probably the manliest thing anyone on the quad had ever seen.
