I think the poster is not being entirely truthful.
1) The photo shows that Catbus at Burning man, but he says he only drove it to and from work.
2) The following comment, about the Catbus, appears on youtube, and has a different story to tell.

“Funny. My husband was the creator of the cat bus at Burningman–glad you enjoyed it. We have no idea what happened to it as it broke down one year and he just left it there. lol I do know that you are right, it still pops up now and then. haha”
Probably the only thing accurate there is the price and the line “SOMETIMES PEOPLE GET SICK ON IT”
If I had to make a guess, I’d say, someone “acquired” the Catbus, and now wants to sell it because all that fur smells like puke.

Also, the photo dates from 2002. I imagine the Catbus isn’t looking so pretty now…

Hm…. looks like a joke altogether, because there is no contact info on the ad.
