Do a search for NEW CARS
Check out the #5 listing - NetNation.com
What's going on here? Let's see who can answer today's mystery SERP listing. :)

I do not see that result in the SERPs today, but it appears that netnation is the hosting provider for stricklandchevrolet.com. That site is currently undergoing "maintenance" with a redirect to netnation.com so it must be a leftover in the cache from when the site was out there. Maybe stricklandchevrolet.com forgot to pay their bill...

Yahoo has some very "unique" ways of handling redirects, as explained here:

Note the disclaimer at the bottom of the explanation, "with the exception of special cases that may be read and indexed differently."
So, there really is no way to know for certain what their crawler is doing with redirects like this, and it does not surprise me at all to see the mystery SERP listing you describe...
