I've never seen an ad so bad as that, but if a seller replied to me in a text or email with such gibberish I would instantly walk away. In my view anybody that slapdash and careless with written language will probably be just as cavalier about servicing and caring for the car.

Do I need a car from some kid who'll put nothing into the car except alpha male accessories and gasoline?


Nah! Don't think so.
Quite literally there are members of the US who have become so inept to acceptable grammar in their speech patterns it has become OK to type phonetically... I personally think this should be illegal as we are all dumber for having read it and befuddled for trying to understand it...
