Warning~
While the 2nd picture *looks* bad, it is really just the owner of the Chevy truck who had never seen a GMC truck before. Once he had, seeing he missed the chance to buy a MANLY truck was just too much for the young lad.
Seriously~ That doesn't look like a happy ending!

In pic 4, looks like that sprint car had to tow that GMC off the track after it broke down AGAIN.While the 2nd picture *looks* bad, it is really just the owner of the Chevy truck who had never seen a GMC truck before.

Zig - I think this guy is just playing opossum to get out of that speeding ticket! I have tried this several times and believe it or not - it works 50/50!

For us old-timers!
Remember back in the day when Coca-Cola had bottling plants thru-out the good ol' USA? If your town had a population of 7500 or more, you too, could have a bottling plant. Coke was sold in 6 1/2 oz. glass bottles with the name of the bottling plant on the bottom of of the bottle. You always returned your empty bottle to your local grocery store, service station, etc (pre 7-11) and in many states, you got a cash refund of a penny or two for your efforts!
Next time your distributor ordered more, chances are good that they delivered it in one of these fine vehicle, (less the model, of course!)
Oh for the good old days!

Insider trading
In 6th grade, my buddy Jimmy Ludwig's dad worked for Coca-Cola in Houston. One day Jimmy heard from his dad that bottle deposit was going to go up from 2 cents to 3 cents per bottle. Jimmy spent the next few weeks getting his hands on as many Coke bottles as he could and squirreled them away in the family garage. On the fateful day, Jimmy carted six cases (24 bottles each) of empties to the local U-Tote-M and made a killing in the market. Profit was $1.44 plus whatever the increase in deposit price of the wooden cases was. Probably better than my portfolio the last few years.
