A window sticker featuring Harbor Freight's U.S. General brand. Is this real? I wonder how many tool brands exist for which I would even ask that question.

my neighbor leased SL600 that used to be owned by a guy that owned Lambos Ferrari's etc.
This $120K car from the 90's was a car that his wife would take everyday trips like "groceries". It was a car that they didn't car if it get door dings from Toyota corolla parked next to it.

They eventually crashed the car into NJ barriers ripping up the whole driver side of the car and the insurance repaired it and then went to Mercedes Dealer to be a Lease or used for sale.
