It all depends on how much patience you have to deal with dreamers.
I sold a Ford F-150 many years ago without any problems. A guy and his wife came to see the truck, he made me a reasonable offer and it was sold.
About 4 or 5 years ago I posted a Porsche for sale in the auto trader and in a couple other online car sites, and I had nothing but dreamers and tire kickers coming by for joy rides.
I even had a guy come by with his wife that was in a wheelchair trying to see if the wheelchair would fit in the frunk. That guy couldn`t even drive manual properly. He drove like a maniac, stalled the car a couple of times and was slipping the clutch at almost every gear. When he was leaving he even put a dent in my wife`s car opening his car door for his wife. That was enough for me. That same week I traded the car in for a lot less than what I could`ve gotten selling it private.
