Truck Conversion & Toterhome Community - View Single Post - Truck Conversion Quote of the day. "600k & This engine is just getting settled in."

I found these quotes as I was surfing for truck conversions and thought they are classic and funny.

1. "Mileage is 609,000 but these engines have a 1 million mile life expectancy which has been proven time and again in commercial semi-trucks. This engine is just getting settled in."

What would Rodney Dangerfield or Geoff Kaye say as a potential buyer?
"This engine is getting settled in for the junk yard, to blow up, to break down..."

2. Here's another one:

Only 66,119 Miles...This Coach is better than new...

My question on this one is "How can a vehicle with 66,000 miles, that is used in stock condition, be better than new? Afterall, now it has 66,000 miles on it." That means I could buy any vehicle, drive it for 66,000 miles and then tell the buyer that it is better than new. What an idea!
