Why do you post for-sales of hearses? I get the hearse bit for the most part - many of them are cool and beautiful. By why for-sales? Why not just, the most beautiful hearses you can find in general?

Tumblr has many blogs that post pretty hearses, but very few that you can rescue from sales listings and own yourself. It's a matter of finding niche hearses, and the allure of hearse ownership.
