Palin’s MayorMobile For Sale

PalininCarAre you looking for a new ride? Don’t want to go through a car dealer? Need something that will fit the whole family… and even your kids’ kids?  Looking for something that has an official seal of approval? Well then I’ve got the auto for you.

A 1999 Ford Expedition with 74,188 miles needs new brakes and some other minor repairs. It’s tan and has got Air Conditioning, Cruise Control, Power Locks, Power Windows.

Wow! I know? Right? I’m sure there’s going to be a lot of you clamoring for this vehicle based on that alone, but what if I told you someone famous owned it?

What if I told you that a certain Mayor of Wasilla sat her behind in the same seat that a lucky bidder will get to sit in.

That’s right my friend, the City of Wasilla just put Sarah Palin’s Mayoral ride up for sale on Ebay.

The starting price? A cool $10,000.

Never mind the Blue Book price for this SUV is around 3k… but it’s history! I mean this is the car that Palin planned to run for Governor in! This is the SUV that Palin could have driven to the library to ban books! Or maybe where she kept all the rape kits!

Even though the City of Wasilla advertises this as her official car, it’s not the famous MayorMobile that caused so much controversy. That MayorMobile was a White Chevy Suburban, at least, according to the NY Times.

So, 10k for a car that she probably drove when the Suburban was in the shop… or The First Dude of Wasilla was taking it out for a ride.

Here’s the listing description on Ebay

“This vehicle was purchased new by the City of Wasilla in 1999 for offical use by Mayor Sarah Palin through her second term as mayor ending in October 2002. The vehicle has remained in the city fleet as a staff car for successive administrations. The vehicle is in storage at this time, and it is in need of new brakes, wheel seals and an idle air control valve. The buyer will need to make payment directly to the City of Wasilla and arrange for shipping if necessary. The vehcile is being sold as is with no warranty.”

Sounds like a deal-though, eh? Is the creepy cardboard Palin cutout included? Nobody should have to drive alone.

    Are you sure that is a cardboard cutout? It has all the depth of the original.

    No mention of an airbag. The Quitter not included? The cutout chaffeur allowed her Wingnutness to drive freeway express lanes going to work. That girl never missed a trick and you can read that however you want. 🙂
