As we all realize, car postings on facebook are an open sewer of misinformation. Yesterday there was a post showing one and labeled as a "GMC Studebaker." I responded by asking if maybe they meant Ford or Chrysler. Hellllp!

Something posted on Facebook misleading?
With all the protocols and "fact checkers" they have to make sure no "misinformation" is disseminated?

The Prototypes were made by Avanti Motors Corp. NOT Studebaker, and NO Production Units were ever finished or Sold.

I can’t believe people have so little to do other than want to correct people about a car that has not been manufactured in over 55 years. Before bashing the seller, did anyone actually check to see if Studebaker was listed as an option for listing?

The problem is not knowing who made Studebaker; it’s not knowing how to use Facebook. When you’re writing a listing it gives you a drop-down menu for ‘Make’. Studebaker is among many others that are not listed. Amazingly, nobody bothers to choose ‘Other’. That gives you a box where you’re can manually type in ‘Studebaker’. Once you do that you can manually type in your model.
Another common theme- a price that makes no sense, with text in the ad to the effect of ‘Facebook won’t let me post the actual price’. Yet somehow I have never had any problem with it.
In the end, the issue is either laziness by the poster, or lack of common sense. Or maybe, some degree of each.Proud NON-CASO
