  • Free AK-47 with purchase of new car!



    According to the New York Times:

    Max Motors [of Butler, Missouri] is offering vouchers for AK-47s.

    “Max Motors is giving away an AK-47 with every truck purchase!!!” says the promotion on the dealership’s Web site. In reality, it’s providing a voucher that can be used at an area gun store, According to Mark Muller, the owner of Max Motors, in an interview with CNN (via Slashdot), an AK-47 can cost $450 to $500.

    Mr. Muller added that the dealership sold around 35 more cars last year with the handgun promotion. And he said he hoped to sell 100 trucks with the new promotion.

    What a brilliant promotion!

    Would you be more willing to buy a car or truck if it came with a free AK-47?  Or would a $500 rebate work just as well?
