My friend Andy sold his S-10 with 200,000 miles to a guy for $400. He was asking $500 and the guy asked him if he would take $400. He did it because, as he told me, he felt bad for someone who couldn't come up with $500 for a car.
Anyway, the guy went to Andy's church and so he just signed the title over and gave it to him. A few years later, Andy got contacted by the Tulsa Police Department about an investigation that the truck had been involved in a hit and run. (Tulsa is 100 miles from here.) Fortunately Andy was at work during the time of the accident (he's a fireman) so he had a good alibi. He also had a bill of sale that the guy had signed, which he provided to police.
