I had an interesting one the other day. A guy asks me what year my truck is (standard question) so I say 49 and then his wife says , how much you want for it. So I said politely, its not for sale and continued talking to the husband.She proceeds to ask 3 more times "how much do I want to sell it for?" So I say " ITS NOT FOR SALE" to which she responds "what would you sell it for?". I finally say " this is my baby and I can't sell it" .Her response "people sell their babies all the time". So I say "Not around here they don't" and drive off. I am flattered when someone offers to buy my car but they can be obnoxious sometimes.
