Central Florida's Finest
I've always wanted to buy a pick-up truck, but have been waiting for the right incentive.
That is truly frightening. What's worse is that my husband is reading over my shoulder, saying, "I wish I had one. They're great guns! Ak-47, really reliable." Ack.
We are listing our house tonight and it terrifies us because we don't know where to move. I will show this to my husband and when I do all his doubt will disappear. It's sort of like manna from heaven, know what I mean?
He drives a truck and could use a new one. Everything else is just gravy!
Wow, this could be Utah. We just got an official state firearm courtesy or our legislature who obviously have nothing better to do. Do you suppose they waive the background check?
WOW! WOW!! I lived in Dade County (as a missionary) and I am totally not surprised by this sign. I'm just sayin'. I have a lot of pictures that are right up there with this one. Wow. Just wow.
Welcome to the south. Mine isn't quite THAT good.. but when we went home to visit a few years back (Texas) I saw a billboard on the side of the road advertising a free deer feeder with the purchase of a truck from a dealership. I took a picture and brought it back here ( New Jersey) with me because I knew no one would believe me.catio
In light of the recent Arizona shooting, I continue to be amazed that its not harder to get a gun! Apparently, in my home state, all you have to do is buy a truck!
I'm not sure what's scarier... The fact that it's even an offer, or the fact that there are people that take em up on it!
ReplyDeleteA gang bangers dream ride. Wheels and a gun for a drive by shooting. Stupidest marketing idea ever.
ReplyDeleteThat is truly frightening. What's worse is that my husband is reading over my shoulder, saying, "I wish I had one. They're great guns! Ak-47, really reliable." Ack.
ReplyDeleteThat's not real offer, right???
ReplyDeleteWell...if you are going to be prepared for the coming zombiepocalypse, you need a truck and a gun...
ReplyDeleteFunny Stuff I Write
AWESOME! Sign me up!
ReplyDeleteHow can you not love Florida? You can still get two for one drinks there too can't ya?

Oh I can use one of those!!
ReplyDeleteSo this is legal? Huh...who would've guessed?
ReplyDeleteMy husband would have broken his neck trying to get there. How crazy is that offer!
ReplyDeleteDown right disturbing....
ReplyDeleteWell, that's just perfect, cause I was worried that when I bought my pickup, I wouldn't have enough money LEFT for the AK-47! Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteMy word verification is ferqvfgq, which makes about as much sense as that offer! :P :)
Wow, this could be Utah. We just got an official state firearm courtesy or our legislature who obviously have nothing better to do. Do you suppose they waive the background check?
ReplyDeleteYou have seriously GOT to be kidding! Omg, that is hilarious and also very disturbing! :0
ReplyDeleteHaha! Awesome. My husband would be all over that!
ReplyDeleteYowzers is right. Scary.
ReplyDeleteI would be sort of scared to see what kind of inventory of guns they have in preparation for all the trucks they may sell with this "great" deal.
ReplyDeleteWOW! WOW!! I lived in Dade County (as a missionary) and I am totally not surprised by this sign. I'm just sayin'. I have a lot of pictures that are right up there with this one. Wow. Just wow.
ReplyDeleteDon't see how you could go wrong. What a deal!
ReplyDeleteThis is gun-giveaway is from November of last year. If Jana was concerned about it, why did she move to Florida?
ReplyDeleteWhy is this suddenly an issue, 3 months after the fact?

ReplyDeletehey samantha-
ReplyDeletemaybe she didn't know about it, duh.
I love incentives!

Glad my local car dealership isn't the only one that offers a gun with the purchase of a truck. We're in good company!

ReplyDeleteWhat happened to fuzzy dice to hang on your rear-view mirror?
ReplyDeleteOh, good grief. What's next? How about at the DMV: "Free six-pack of beer if you pass your driving test" ??
ReplyDeleteI don't get it.
I just bought a new truck...am a little disappointed that all I got free was a bedliner...
ReplyDeleteOne more reason we need a pick up! Wow, and to think we just left the south without one...sigh...bummer!
ReplyDeleteBecause what's a truck without a gun, right? Car salesmen here in Australia could learn a lot from Florida, apparently...
ReplyDeleteYikes! Rough neighborhood?
ReplyDeleteGet the truck; use the AK47 on the rats
