I'd check for a resident queen.
Re-written ad: Ford truck at $1200, less value of honey included at $300 means a net price of $900. Can also be used in Georgia Tech homecoming parades.
Exactly, if you got an experienced keeper to pull the queen, the rest would follow.
Then an experienced beekeeper should make a best offer to buy the truck, pull the queen, and resell the truck. Pocket huge fee.
Did you say pocket a huge bee?

How about:
The perfect vehicle for people who like to drive buzzed.
The alcoholic would like the pitch, and the members of MADD would agree once they saw the truck.
Well, now we know where all of the bees have been disappearing to.
for a minute there i thought it said
too many beers
and i was wondering how that could be
but no it s too many bees
which is easy to understand
any number is too many bees
damned hairy nazis

Methadras : Well, now we know where all of the bees have been disappearing to.
It turns out it was greedy beekeepers, making the bees too big.
Tiny bees are happy bees.
I'd say it's no longer his truck. He just needs to accept that and move on.
But apparently it WAS one sweet ride.

This happened to me once. I got my hose and blasted them from 25 feet. When any flew in my direction, I easily shot them down with the water jet. They were all washed up in five minutes. What's the problem?
Found poetry!
My guess is that this advertiser's insect identification skills are similar to his English skills and he doesn't know a bee from a wasp or a hornet. I wouldn't assume that there are actual bees in the truck.
And at the rate bee hives are dying there is probably not much value even if it is a bee hive. Even if it was extracted the hive would probably collapse.
Bottom line is, it's a Ford, so it is worthless anyway.
.. hairy nazis.
Har, har!
A moment.....
....To bee .... or not to bee:
that... is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The stings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take jet-hose against a bee swarm of troubles,
And by opposing end them?
Sell the truck AND the house it was parked at. Maybe move to a different state. Probably what I'd do.
That's a lot of knees.

Ode to B's
Barely busy bombylious bee buzzed bibacious beer-bellied belchers bared belly button.
BUZZ
I saw the best Ford of my generation destroyed by bees, running hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through Apidae streets at dawn
looking for an angry sting,
antenna-headed pollinators
burning for the ancient heavenly connection
to the honey-scented dynamo in the machinery of my truck

NKVD -- FORD is The Company which did not take stimulus money.
Why?
They weren't on the edge of dying.
Why?
Ask my 1992 4WD diesel F250 with >298,000 miles on it.
Heh.
