These Colors Don't Run: Florida Dealership Offering AK-47 with Truck Purchase


In freedom-based news, pre-owned truck dealer Nations Trucks - which sells "trucks, not gimmicks" - has become the latest consumer outlet to offer a gun with a purchase (is Michael Moore seeing this?). In this case, the dealership is offering certain qualified customers a fresh AK-47 with the purchase of a new truck. Actually, it's a $400 voucher that can be used for any form of anti-invasion insurance.

In order to not appear too gimmicky, Nations Trucks has gone ahead and posted an excerpt from the Second Amendment on their site to prove that what they're doing isn't about national attention...it's about freedom. There's at least one veteran, however, who sees this gun show as maybe a little gimmicky.

Phillip Adams thinks the free gun isn't so smart, and that free flag would make a much better gift. He says, "An AK-47 is a very dangerous weapon...[A flag] would be a lot more supportive for our country and our veterans." Sure, but a flag just wouldn't get the same sort of all-important press coverage from Robyn Meade.

Of course, all this gun'n'truck buying depends on what the dealer says makes you qualified. If anyone down Florida way wants to stop in at the dealership (it's in Sanford), let us know what hoops you have to jump through other than a background check. Hopefully that's not all, because anyone can beat those.

Infiniti Essence GT Concept becomes a $300 Limited Edition Sculpture with its own Louis Vuitton Case


The well-received Infiniti Essence GT may not have become a reality -at least not yet- but it's getting its own artwork in the form of a collector's edition sculpture, penned by the car's original designer under the supervision of Senior Vice President and Chief Creative Officer Shiro Nakamura. The "Essence Sculpture" is made from solid resin and production will be strictly limited to 300 individually numbered units worldwide.

Continuing its cooperation with the famed fashion house Louis Vuitton, Infiniti also ordered a bespoke carrying case that was handcrafted in Louis Vuitton's workshop in Asnieres, France.

The "Essence Sculpture" with Louis Vuitton case will get its world debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week and go on sale through the Infiniti merchandise website at infinitilifestyle.com beginning in December. The price for the sculpture alone has been set at US$300 plus shipping. If you want the personalized Louis Vuitton Damier Graphite case, you'll have to order and buy it separately, so forget about getting the sculpture and giving the case to your 'amore' as a Christmas gift...
