In August of 1999 in Salt Lake City, Utah a beat up old pick up truck was sold for more than 50 times its blue book value.

Why would someone do that?

  • The real Seldom Seen Smith (Ken Sleight himself) at 0:14.

  • Edward Abbey hated vehicles and thought they were basically giant wheelchairs for lazy people. So it's ironic that people want his truck.

  • @Desertphile It would be awesome to have his old vehicle and create an Edward Abbey cult shrine around it.

    

  • @NotSoOldHippy ; Damn I wish I had Abbey's truck,

  • Haha, Thats great.

  • Love it. He is missed.

  • Happy Birthday Edward Abbey! rip

  • We live in a society in which it is normal to be sick; and sick to be abnormal.

  • Ed would laugh, yes, but he would also be touched that old friends cherished his memory enough to lay out that much coin for a small piece of it. He would then probably offer to go into the old truck business where he would buy an old truck, drive it for a week, and sell it at a huge profit, to the derision and cheering of the crowd.

  • Abbey's somewhere laughing his ass off! What a bunch of fucking idiots!
