Have you ever talked to a car sales man or insurance man. When you buy it, they say it has this and that and when you sell it or file a claim well it dosent have this and that.

I found this picture of T.C.F.D from the 1980's. What was the small truck beside the van used for? It looks to me like a Brush Truck.

Yuck! So it was originally 'turtle green,' then went to slime, now they have it completely unoriginal with a white body and the pump still in slime?
