Only question I have is... Why is this truck still in one piece? I know it was ‘Built Ford Tough’ but there’s got to be a missle that will send the F-250 to the big blue oval in the sky.

****The vehicles were supposed to be recycled or parted out.***

They could have driven it down into Arkansas and for $50.00 got a new clean title and sold it as “a truck ONLY driven to church om Sunday by my dear old Momma who just passed away!”

You would be surprised how many autos there are out there with two or more “clean” titles floating around. One from the original owner and one from Arkansas.

I hope these Jihadis have current tags, inspection and insurance on that F250.

From local 2 Houston.

A spokesperson for Autonation told Local 2, the vehicle was part of a trade-in, back in November 2013. The 2005 pick-up truck had 176,000 miles on it and within 24 hours went to auction.

What happened to it after that is a mystery.

The Autonation spokesperson said whoever obtained the vehicle probably didn’t register it because that’s where the paper trail stops. He also said the truck was probably part of an overseas whole sale and that’s how it ended up in Syria.

That explains the 2014 registration and inspection stickers.

I wonder why the plumber said it was three years ago? That was just over 1 year ago.

I’m into my ‘thin-skinned’ about people who are thin-skinned... Besides, aren’t people with red hair also ‘victims’ on some level?
