    Since it probably won’t stay up long here’s the text:

    Selling for a friend. 2010 Chevy Cobalt - it clears the lowest possible
    hurdle for what constitutes a car, except that hurdle is on the ground next
    to ride-on lawnmowers. It goes, it stops, and it consumes gasoline.

    The 2010 Chevy Cobalt is the condom of cars- meant to be used for a short
    while then thrown away without sentimental feelings. The seats feel like sitting in a plastic tube slide as an adult. It’s fine for commuting but
    not comfortable enough for a long trip. The 2010 Chevy Cobalt is BASIC transportation. There is nothing sophisticated happening here. It beats walking, but it’s not as good as riding a skateboard.

    2010 Chevy Cobalt- the official car of using the Reyes filter on Instagram
    to hide your cold sore. The official car of someone who got talked into
    buying penny stocks. The official car of someone at the bottom of a
    multi-level marketing scheme...

    You just need a cheap daily beater to save some money, and this is it! The world is your oyster - this 2010 Chevy Cobalt is your pearl! Sure the ride feels like you’re getting jerked off by calloused hands, the speakers only work in the back, and it’s best suited for driving to the coin-op
    laundromat to get in a shoving match with someone over a dropped quarter,
    but nobody hits the ground running with their dream car. This 2010 Cobalt
    is reliable, unsexy, and doesn’t take a cent of your paycheck except to get an inspection.

    I guess it’s fun, but not compelling- sort of like jumping on a trampoline with a sore ankle. And if we’re being honest, this car is not meant to be fun, it’s meant to be Band-aided until it dies. It’s a one owner vehicle with round tires, fresh inspection sticker, a clean title, and 102,000
    original miles.

    I want him to learn how to get laid without having a nice car. Life’s a lot cheaper that way.
