19. But, but, but... that would mean not buying monster pickups. How will

the guys look like real men if they don't have their "Special Ops" package pickup when they're driving to Costco??1???

Hand to God. There is a huge pickup in my parking lot that has "Special Ops" printed in three or four places on the body. So we know about all the special ops the owner is engaging in in the supermarket of our suburban village.
