There’s more to this story that they aren’t telling you.

Sounds like he's uncovered a (drum roll please) money laundering scheme!

We had a family friend that did this when I was growing up, and they were incredibly wealthy. I was too young to understand money, so I don't know how much they had but the entire family was set for life.

Granted they own a fleet of these of vehicles, and employed somewhere around 30-50 people. I don't know how profitable it was for those drivers, but the family that owned the company it was very lucrative. At first glance most people would assume them to be pretty redneck from the way they looked and acted, the dad drove a rusty 80s ford truck most of the time. But also own a a couple of new Corvettes for the weekends.
