Anyone that uses a working addon that selects mounts randomly (based on %skill allowed in the area, so flying when possible)? I guess I could just make a macro for it, but I really cba to type out all the mounts I have.

I did look it up on Curse but the only thing I found was an addon that was outdated and didnt work anymore according to the comments.... :)

OMG READ THIS FIRST. REPLACE G WITH GROUND MOUNTS eg. Black War Steed and F WITH FLYING MOUNTS eg. Bronze Drake

Code:
/run g,f={G,G,G},{F,F,F};z={["Dalaran"]=g,["Wintergrasp"]=g,["Krasus' Landing"]=f};f=z[GetSubZoneText()]or z[GetZoneText()]or(IsFlyableArea()and f)or g;z=(IsMounted()or CallCompanion("MOUNT",f[random(#f)]))and IsFlying()or Dismount()

Is a semi decent plain old macro that works nicely for those with Cold Weather Flying.

Had a very very quick look on curse for mount addons but they mostly do that anyway....

All the "area" crap is quite superfluous. If you simply say "mount a random flying mount" then "mount a random non-flying mount" the worst that will happen is that you get an error on the first on. That's how I used to do it.
Problem is that we're now looking at 50+ mounts. I'm not gonna list them all in a macro. I couldn't even as the number of characters in a macro is too limited.

Just make sure you carry around a bag of these to pay him for it. ^_^

Wut? Liquorice coins?

I used to use smartmount prior to patch 4, not sure if that still works. Now I use arkinventory, which is actually a bag addon that now has a random mount feature. Works fine for me as long as you remove sea turtle from the list of ground mounts its allowed to use - it would occasionally pick that one!
