This truck deal will really blow you away

THIS IS NOT AN AD, but way too amusing.....

Talk about riding shotgun …

Guntruck Myriad automakers over the years have offered freebies with the purchase of an automobile, from bicycles to barbecues.

But Butler, Mo.-based car dealer Mark Muller has truly upped the ante: if you purchase a truck at Max Motors, he’ll throw in a free AK-47 assault rifle on the house.

The promotion is completely legal… well, at least in Missouri it is.

If anything, Muller is garnering global attention to his scheme. He was recently interviewed in-depth on CNN, where he staunchly defended the AK-47 promotion. Muller noted there’s a “bunch of evil in the world” and that he’s a “firm believer in the Second Amendment.”

When informed that there’s a bit of a difference between giving away, say, a hunting rifle and an AK-47, Muller remained unfazed. Next time your vehicle is swarmed by seven thugs, he told the journalist, “You’ll wish you had an AK-47.” (Methinks simply sporting a “Max Motors” decal on the rear bumper would be sufficient warning to scare off the criminal element – assuming they’ve heard about Muller’s promotion.)

To clarify, buyers won’t actually be driving off the lot in a Silverado with an AK-47 occupying the passenger seat. Rather, a new truck purchaser will receive a voucher worth about US$450 that can be redeemed at his friendly neighbourhood gun boutique.

The promotion is also hailed on the dealership's website, MAX MOTORS. A photo of an AK-47 is perched next to an illustration of a cowboy sporting a couple of six-shooters. The dealership’s slogan is, “Our prices even blow us away!”

Regardless where one stands on guns, the AK-47 promotion is generating publicity faster than an AK-47 fires bullets. The dealership – which sells Chrysler, Ford and GM products – has been featured on Fox News, CNBC and even the BBC.

According to the website, feedback regarding the gun giveaway has been overwhelmingly positive. “We want to thank everyone who has emailed us and commented about our latest promotion,” notes the site. “Your support has been tremendous!”

My hunch: Muller knows full well that giving away an assault rifle is a slam-dunk way of getting noticed (and it’s far more effective that erecting the de rigueur inflatable dinosaur upon the dealership rooftop.)

Or perhaps he’s truly bought into the stereotype that pickup truck drivers in certain regions love the idea of driving around with weaponry.

Either way, Canadian consumers can forget about taking advantage of this particular scheme. While you can indeed license a vehicle purchased at Max Motors in this country, just try registering a freebie that is strictly prohibited in these parts.

Oh you silly Americans and your guns.

I've been having the giggle fits all day after reading this story. Just two frames of thought come to mind.

What about the car buyers, can't they get an AK-47 too, or do you have to drive a pick-up trick to be cool enough to drive home with an assault rifle.

Why stop at an AK-47, give them something with a little more class like an M16; better yet why not give them a bazooka with every truck purhcase.

Most amazing jew boots

Kalashnikov's are cheaper, duh.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

He's just upholding the Second Amendment. What's wrong with that?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I honestly believe every United States citizen should own an AK-47 and armor piercing ammunition. I suspect our crime levels would plummet. Besides, I'd trust my life to an AK-47 over an M16 any day.

Kudos to this Butler fellow.

I think this might be spreading faster than an E. coli outbreak. We don't need the stereotype to be nurtured.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Being armed while driving didn't help this poor guy.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Ha ha, I love that something that happened near me(well semi-near, it's about 90 mins away) made its way here. A friend of mine lives a few towns over and he calls it the land of hicks and whores. After visiting there once I agree, can't say I've seen a Nissan 280z with a gun rack anywhere else. *sigh* No wonder everyone thinks Missouri is full of inbred hicks, not that they're wrong once you hit the Ozarks.

How ya doing, buddy?

Fuck that. I'm getting myself a Knight.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Did you know? Many United States citizens are criminals! Millions of them, in fact!

I always like it when people preface their statements with "I honestly believe". It betrays a certain internal knowledge on the part of the speaker that they know they're about to say something absurd and need to reassure the listener in advance that they're not kidding.

What the hell do legitimate gun owners need with AP ammo? Criminals rarely wear armor of any kind. Cops have armor fairly often, though! Are you proposing we should shoot all the pigs, Caliburn?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I honestly believe this would eliminate this swine flu malarkey people are talking about.

I'm pretty sure that using an automatic rifle inside the cab of a truck to fend off potential car jackers would invalidate your insurance. It'd probably leave you a little hard of hearing too.

Still, the American Constitution does defend the right of all American citizens to do really fucking retarded things if they want and this special offer is pretty much the best example of this I've heard in a while. God bless the U S of A.

Are there really that many instances of people getting car-jacked by seven well armed criminals in Missouri?

Caliburn might not but I will! The police should be terrified of every citizen.
