I said isn't buying a $60,000 truck a rather expensive way to save a few hundred on plates? He really didn't have much to say about that.
I'm trying to be friends with this guy so I had to employ Herculean effort to contain myself: one short little guy, no wife, no kids, no anybody or any thing to cart around, eyeing up this $60k 8' tall quad cab diesel pickup for not much more than casino runs. Compensating???  |
Maybe he's just 'hedging his bets" that someday he'll need that 1Ton to haul all his "loot" back from the Casino when he "...hits the jackpot..." (wink,wink)?
