Salvage street

i need help with Car issues?

So the car that i bought and was paying off from a guy all of a sudden broke down and when i took it to the shop my mechanic told me that it was a salvage title and isn't street safe. Should i pay the money that i owe to the guy i bought it from even though he told me it was a great car or should he pay me back for what i payed him because the car doesnt even drive. He wanted me to pay 3,500 and the car only worked for 6 months.

Sorry, unless he sold it to you with a warranty, you're stuck.

Paul's got the "lemon law" completely wrong. I don't know how so many people have this wrong. First off, the law only applies to new vehicles. With how often I see this on answers! I can't say this too many times, THE LEMON LAW DOES NOT APPLY TO USED VEHICLES. Secondarily, the law is very specific in how it works, it's not just about crap cars. You have to have the same problem with the car three times in a row and allow the dealer to try to fix it three times and then if it happens a fourth time, they have to take the car back. Even if your brand new car is in the shop twelve times in four months, if it's a different problem each time, the lemon law doesn't apply.

Now back to the situation you're in, this falls into the "ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" saying. Always get a car fax on any car you buy. The two minutes and $25 will be well spent.

Salvage titles are orange instead of blue and they say salvage on them so they're easily and readily noticeable to be salvage titles. There's no additional notice that needs to be given when purchasing a salvage title car. Only if he never showed you the title would you have a case against him. Even if you never saw the title you'll need to go over all the paperwork to be sure it doesn't disclose the salvage status. Cars have salvage titles when an insurance company deems them to be a total loss for one of many possibilities like a bad accident or flooding. The titles are either branded "repairable" or "certificate of destruction." "Certificate of Destruction" cars are for parts only and can never be put back on the roads. This might be one more instance where you have a case against the person that sold the car to you so check to see if it's certificate of destruction. "Repairable" cars can be put back together and safely driven but you never know how good a job the person did or what they missed when they were making the repairs so most people stay away from them, and it's usually the best thing to do. Some people love salvage cars because they can be purchased so inexpensively, generally speaking, a salvage title reduces the value by 50%. The problem, of course, is that you just never know what you're going to get when you buy one of these things.

Unfortunately, you've been duped. Someone took advantage of you because you didn't know what you were getting into. I'm very sorry but this is probably just an expensive life lesson. Unless you can prove one of the things I listed above in court, you still owe the remainder you had agreed upon for the sale of the vehicle. If you don't pay, he has the right to destroy your credit.

Michael Jordan?

Is Jordan now widely accepted as the greatest player because hype and marketing became king in the 90's? Just a coupla years earlier, they were trying to crown Larry Bird with that title. Bird was not very receptive to this - he was shy and just wanted to play basketball. ( And like all before him, he had the respect to never compare himself to others.) Did you ever see Jerry West and Oscar Robertson ever do that crap? No! What happened is that the NBA fell so far off after the 80's, that they blew M.J. up to salvage the floundering league. They went all hip-hop, and sacrificed good team basketball for one-on-one street ball.....I am not saying this to denigrate the GREAT Michael Jordan ( because he is/was the most relentless player I've ever seen - he is the Rocky Marciano of basketball - no quit ever!). I ask that we look at the game tapes for the subtleties of winning basketball before just blindly annointing people - especially Kobe!!!

I just want to clear one thing, there is nothing wrong with the NBA going streetball. Hank Luisetti's jump shot evolved from streetball. Bill Russell made a playground move like shotblocking respectable. So did Elgin Baylor and his acrobatic aerial moves. There is nothing wrong with incorporating streetball elements into the game.

Its the streetball mindset: showboating, the preponderance of isolation plays, the misguided focus on crossovers, dunks etc. over basic b-ball fundamentals; that is detrimental to the game not hiphop, tattoos or cornrows. As in any sport, trash talking is fine as long as you could back it up (like Bill Russell).

As for Michael Jordan. he's great but he is certainly NOT the greatest. And anointing people as the next MJ, Bird or magic is pointless; Kobe, Dwayne, Lebron will create their own names.
