Cars are like women.

Young ones are pretty hard to gauge since the sparkle is still on them.  But, 
you can tell when the bloom is off the rose and the wear shows up.  Hard living 
takes its toll.  Sagging seats tell more than the really sweet cosmetic 
detailing can hide.  Crack smoking 25 year old will look twice her age.  Same 
sort of hard living shows up on the vegans and keto people.  A body is not 
meant to live through harsh treatment with no damage showing if your eyes are 
open.

POS jeep I have to drive may have seen regular dealer servicing, but somebody 
did not give it the full care its booklet calls for.  Maybe the dealer or owner 
did not want to service bushings.  My 35 year old SD ran smoother than this 18 
year old jeep.  With the suspension rebuilt, that SD was rock solid.  Even the 
220D complete front end replacement was less squirrelly.

I'm skeptical of that assertion.  Mileage and interior wear are not
necessarily correlated.

Hood pad was probably dangling so he just ripped it off.  Not essential and
a cheap and easy fix for the new owner.  Tyr to negotiate @$7500.

Looks real nice.  Needs a hood pad.  Makes you wonder what else was overlooked.
