Trade car for boat - $100000 (Piper, Ks Speedway)

I would like to trade this 2002 Hyundai Sonta for a nice boat of equal value. The car has ps, pb, pw, pdl, leather, sunroof, alloy wheels etc., it's silver w/ black leather. It was purchased new at North Towne Hyundai and I have owned it for the duration. It has around 120K miles on it now and it runs and acts like it should. I would drive it to California today without a worry. I use castrol oil and have had the trans fluid changed regularly also. It was repainted about 3 years ago after some storm damage, so the paint is newer and it looks nice. I have also recently replaced the front rotors and brake pads and replaced the back brake pads. I had it at a Hyundai dealership recently and they noted the lower ball joints may have been a little worn. So I stopped at the parts store and purchased new ones and replaced them, just in case they were right. I am looking for a nice boat that I don't have to work on, just as you would be wanting a car that you would not have to work on. I would prefer a smaller engine boat that is economical, by the way the Hyundai is a six cylinder engine and gets good gas mileage, and it has had the full tune up recently (111K if I remember right). A cuddy cabin or cruiser might be nice to consider but let me know what you have. I don't want a boat I have seen on craigslist for several months that won't sell. I want a boat I could drive to California...

Let's see, $100K for the car, but willing to trade for a boat he can drive to California? Ya, some Kansans are geographically challenged.

"Geographically Challenged" isn't quite the term I was thinking.

Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

"They don't make them like this anymore" - I wonder if the tires come with it...

16' and a cabin? there's a reason they don't make them like that any more--it's a neither/nor boat.

That ad is from my home 20. Our area is full of such junkers and clunkers. But you guys in the midwest who love project boats, go through the Norfolk craigslist sometime. You may find a gem; you will get a laugh.

I found this ad and the seller is Budget Boats, a local popular used boat and marine junkyard, so he's just giving it a shot. He gets a lot of peculiar boats in. Great source for project boats as well as parts. Look them up on the web.

Oh and on the one for $75--the cargo slings are an interesting touch, unless they are fire hose rub rails (a favorite around here)

Re: Funny "TLC needed" boat ads on Craigslist.

Regarding the "trailer" in http://flint.craigslist.org/boa/1552049138.html

:eek:

I like how it's listed for $125. I can imagine the reasoning goes like this:

Hmmm... I want at least a hundred buck for this, but someone is gonna try to pull my price down. Well, if they offer 75, I will counter with 115. If they all come back with a counter offer, I am gonna tell 'em, ''Hey ya give me a hundred and ya have yerself a deal''.... Yesiree, that there is whut I call negotiashuns.
