<VV> reading comprehension and "top" vs. "roof"

[Wrsssatty at aol.com]

<The AD SAYS  theTOP was CUT OFF  by "unknown PO":  seldom driven by next 
PO..............

No flame... but it's called "Reading Comprehension", >
 
Yes, indeed the ad does say that and, yes, I indeed was able to comprehend 
that when I read it, however, the fabric cover of a convertible is called a 
"top" that's why when we fold it down we say the "top" is down.  In fact, the 
uppermost steel portion of a coupe is called a "roof" and not a "top."  Therefore, 
one could logically read the text of the eBay listing and conclude that the 
seller was saying that the top had been cut off of a vehicle which left the 
factory as a convertible.
 
"No flame" just defending my publicly impugned intelligence.
