Somebody clue me in.

Forgive me if I'm missing something. A friend of mine is trying to sell this Jeep and he asked me to give him a hand. I been surf fishing since about 1984 and am a regular reader of this site. I thought this might be a place to try to list it as it seems that it would be a good beach buggy for a die hard diesel fan. I read the posting warning before listing and it didn't seem to violate any rules.

If I did any thing that was not above board please let me know what is wrong. The bunch of smilies that are in response don't seem to clarify things for me.

Exclamation your first post

is just to sell something!

you never introduced yourself as a regular reader
so you are in the lurker category
and when an unknown tries to sell something that fast
we all think of it as spam...

now if you had said: hi , my name is so and so

and i've been reading at S-B for x number of months or years

and have decided to jump on in... blah blah blah...

we'd all welcome you aboard

then if you said....hey ? any one looking for a
good 2005 diesel jeep for the sand?

it wouldn't have flown over like a lead balloon

i hope that is an accurate translation

notice: no smiley's were harmed during this message

yeah what these guys said is true, we don't usually take too kindly to a first time poster trying to sell something.
If you have been surfcasting for over 20 years you probably have a lot to contribute to the discussions here and we would welcome and appreciate that.
part of the reason why this site is so great is because we have a lot of "givers" and not just takers, which is what you are coming off as here.
