Why You Shouldn't Buy A Used Car From A Meth-Using Death Metal Fan

March 21, 2009

John Pearley Huffman recently penned an article for the CarAndDriver.com web site offering advice to prospective car buyers on bargain hunting and things that are always best to avoid. The feature, titled "10 Used Cars to Avoid" and republished on the Yahoo! Autos web site, includes the following section under the sub-heading "Any Camaro Wearing Death Metal Stickers":

"There's a lot of good to be said about old Camaros: They were available with small-block V-8s, massaged right they handle well, and they're dirt-cheap. But it's also true that these cars attract the sort of buyer who saves his greatest loyalty for death metal legends like SLAYER, NECROPHAGIA, and MORBID ANGEL. Vehicle care isn't a top priority when you have three kids by four different women and a serious meth addiction.

"Caution: Beyond the band-loyalty stickers, look out for crumpled parole reports, old visitor's passes from prominent penal institutions, and abandoned toothless children in the hatchback area. And if it smells like meth, it's meth."
