“ Models included in the buyback offer are certain Ram 1500s from 2009 to 2012; the Ram 1500 Mega Cab 4 by 4 from 2008; and the Ram 2500 4 by 4, 3500 4 by 4, 4500 4 by 4, and 5500 4 by 4, all from 2008 through 2012. Also part of the offer are 2009 Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUVs and the Dodge Dakota pickup from 2009 through 2011.”

Who writes 4x4 as 4 by 4? I honestly have never seen someone write it out like that before.

Spell it out, sure, but spell it out correctly. There are hyphens. It’s 4-by-4. (Or, better yet, four-by-four. Might as well go all-out.)

That just sounds like some form of Craigslist shorthand that will result in the wrong people showing up at your house.

Manager: “Uh...do you drive a car?”

Employee: “Yea”

Manager: “Great...you’re hired!”

Yahoo has to appeal to the non car people. They’d see 4x4 and think theres a math problem.
