800 obo needs alot Alright look, I’m gonna be totally honest with you—this 2005 Mazda Tribute V6 is an absolute pile of shit, but she runs, and in this economy that’s gotta be worth something. She’s got 177k miles on her, no title (bill of sale only), and the motor is surprisingly healthy, but it’s open headers so she roars like a Mustang with a bad attitude. Since the radio is totally fried from water damage, your only music options are singing to yourself or listening to that raw V6 scream. Amazingly, the dash actually works and doesn't have a single warning light on—though whether that means the engine is immaculate or the electrical system is just too tired to care is a mystery you'll have to solve. Now for the bad news: the power steering pump is shot and the rack and pinion is completely blown out, literally gushing fluid like a wounded animal, so steering this thing is a full upper-body workout. The front windshield leaks like a sieve right onto the passenger floorboard, so the interior has turned into a total biohazard covered in so much mold, rust, and damp dirt that you could probably plant a small vegetable garden on the floor—bring an N95 mask or a priest for an exorcism. The rear hatch doesn't lock or close right and the hatch window won't even latch shut, meaning you effectively cannot lock the car, and if you leave anything inside, Spokane’s local sidewalk enthusiasts will have it cleared out in 30 seconds. The door handles work on a 50/50 Russian roulette system. Right now she’s rolling on my wheels and tires, but I’m keeping those for my actual car, so the second you hand over the cash, we’re swapping them off and she’s sitting flat on her rotors—so bring your own wheels, a fresh battery, a trailer, and cash. The sooner you get this thing out of my driveway, the better the deal I'll give you—mostly because the battery already dropped a cell, and every single day I have to stare at this disaster, my brain drops a cell right along with it. As-is, where-is, come drag this thing off my property before it establishes its own sovereign nation.
P.S. When I bought this thing, I was under the impression it just needed a power steering pump and a belt. Turns out it needs a hell of a lot more, and it’s basically just a scrap car with a healthy running motor. My loss is your demolition derby project. 800obo just want this trash gone bring a battery and wheels and tires
