It's still true - you'd be amazed at how few people can spell Camaro properly... what's really funny is when someone misspells words, thus making their ad basically unfindable. Most people have little time to wade through the ads, thus, these seller outsmart themselves by not using common names. But don't get me started on another pet peeve of using key words - e.g. you're selling a Mustang and you use Corvette, Camaro, etc as key words. I do feel, though, that if someone does that you are authorized to flood their email inbox with the dumbest questions ever (does that mustang have a BBC in it?)
