They would, except there's no room left on the bookshelf next to the 28-volume set vagina and orgasm operational manual.

did the guy ask for them? was he even interested in looking at them? nope... so it's pointless.

Again, you make up your mind based on the condition of the vehicle and how the person selling it keeps up their other shit.

The fact that I had them all in a pile ready to go was part of what convinced him I took care of the car. How is that pointless?

Reading comprehension. Work on it.

You could of had a stack of papers from any other vehicle.

So all that time and effort was, in fact, wasted..

If you say so. I say there's people in this thread just trying to find ways to justify their laziness and lack of organizational skills.

Just my $.02

No doubt with some people..

In my case, i don't do it for other people.. I have a simple text file on my PC with the date, mileage, bolt size, filter #, amount added, and viscosity so this way I have an easy cheat sheet when I need to go do an oil change or find out when I need to do one.

When I sell vehicles, I just tell them it's been taken care of and once they take it for a ride and check it out, they never ask for records..

IMO there's a diff between being organized and going overboard.

A few buddies do that for their bikes, I just started doing this last year on the priller, I just jot down the date, mileage and what was done in the shop manual. Seems easier than making all that stuff on the computer. I wish I had done it earlier on my bikes but I am not selling them anytime soon.
