We were quite shocked (but not really suprised) when we discovered that a truck dealership in Florida, US, have taken drastic measures to promote their business. Nations Trucks located in Sanford, Florida, are currently running a promotion due to close at the end of November whereby truck buyers will receive a voucher for $400 (£250) which can be redeemed for an AK-47 at a local firearms shop when they purchase a truck. According to Nick Genetta, General Sales Manager at Nations Trucks, business has been booming since the promotion of the deadly weapons, stating that "My buyer [of trucks] is absolutely a gun owner, no question".
In regard to sending out the wrong message, Genetta said "I don't think that it sends the wrong message" and explained that the company are merely allowing customers to assert their rights under the Second Ammendment of Constitution. All customers are subject to backgrounds checks before being able to purchase a firearm - We'd certainly hope so!!!
