Nonetheless, it'd make a good $wamp Yankee with Money ride. :D

It'd make a great delivery vehicle for your seed company!! Get it!!

I worked for a large construction firm in SF for several years and the boss might have been a candidate for one of these. He had the most poshed out Dodge pickup I'd ever seen, the bed of which was rarely used. He was the kind of guy who was always looking to look deluxe in the customers' eyes and this Binz would have given him the look of a real construction dude with room for clients.
