Default Trucks and Disease

Hey folks, thanks for the help with my previous questions and I'm hoping you can help alleviate my latest fear.

I recently bought a 2004 off of Craigslist (I know, I know). I went to pick it up at the seller's residence (I know, I know) and the owner kinda bothered me. She looked like a used prostitute. I wouldn't have been surprised if she coughed up a used condom or something. She came out barely dressed, while smoking a cig, and she just look like a "pro". The truck has a fair amount of wear and tear and I started to wonder what had gone on in that truck. Had she "used" it for business (Who the hell would do that to a dodge )

Is there any chance that I could catch something from using the truck? Who knows where the stick has been. Is it worth the risk or should I try to sell it off to some other poor sap? Does anyone have any experience with prostitutes and trucks? Should I worry?

LOL never heard of something like this ahahah

I'd say just get it steam cleaned for ease of mind, and refrain from having sex with any part of your truck

I'll think about the steam clean. I already went nuts with disinfectant and the vacuum.

If it bothers you that much, dont buy it. You will never be comfortable with it. Something to think about though, if she had traded that truck in at a dealer and you bought it from them, would you still be concerned?

Most viruses like HIV and such cannot live outside the body for more than 24-48 hours anyway. A good and through detail and cleaning sure wont hurt though. Does it smell like anything you might recognize???? LMAO!!

Having been a Corrections Officer what I think you really need to worry about is what else they might have hidden or left in the truck. Most prostitutes are also drug addicts. Search very carefully ever nook and cranny in that truck. They may have hidden drugs or needles or what ever some place in it and forgotten about it. In there drugged state of mind.
