In His Own Coin

The Best Little Hoard House In Cincinnati

An Ohio man with a hatred of paper money slapped down $8,000 in coins at a car dealership to buy a Chevrolet pick-up - then paid the rest by cheque. James Jones, 70, produced 16 coffee cans full of coins to buy his new Chevrolet Silverado in Cincinnati and staff spent 90 minutes counting it. But his coin hoard only covered half of the $16,000 price tag.

FOOTNOTE: Hell Dorado.

Drove My Chevy, Drove My Chevy, Drove ...

I’ve Run Out Of Digits On The Odometer

Frank Oresnik is on the verge of making history in a pickup truck he says is about to pass the million-mile mark. His 1991 Chevrolet Silverado has had four radiators, three gas tanks, five transmissions and six water pumps, but the engine has never been overhauled. Oresnik bought the Silverado in June 1996 after the original owner put 41,000 miles on it. He uses the vehicle to deliver seafood in three states, putting on about 85,000 miles a year.

FOOTNOTE: Great pickup lines.
