We’re getting ready to sell the Sable soon, so as a courtesy to my wife’s faithful vehicle of seven years, I gave it a good wash and sheltered it from the thousands of birds that seem to love to poop on it.

I am not looking forward to selling it... I don’t much enjoy selling cars in general.

If anyone on oppo is looking for a cheap running gladiator, you are free to inquire. This is not a prestine vehicle but I sure as hell won’t sell it to pick n pull for their generous offer of 160 bucks.

I’m happy to double their generous offer, and I promise I’ll stop sending birds to poop on it

That offer is purely junk price. I got $200 for my 98 Taurus with a blow head gasket and maybe more wrong.

I know and they even explain that on the phone. I’m not insulted or anything — scrap is low value right now. But this is a driveable car that I will now have to sell to a private party. Or I have to part out random crap and scrap the remainder. Property is pretty cluttered as is though.

Not sure about your area but it seems that it would be a quick sell at $1000 in my area.

That’s the idea really. Ugh, one thing about selling cars is that as the owner, I’m used to all of the many imperfection and non-working features this has. But will the buyer accept that as I have? Probably not, which is also why we’ll be selling it for less than half the KBB, and probably accepting an even lower offer.

I just bought one that has some bad spots on it and isn’t too great. I’m going to price it at $1500 so whomever tries to buy it doesn’t go lower than I am comfortable with.

You own a Sable/Taurus? Does it have the Duratec engine?

I just bought a 2001 Ford Taurus SEL with a Duratec off of my brother with the sole intentions of selling it.

Does everything work on it? Our Sable has a near-flawless powertrain, but really everything else hasn’t been durable...

A majority of things do. The track on the passenger side window broke, it sounds like there is a hole in the exhaust and there are rust holes in the floorpan. I would take stuff going out over that rust any day.
