I rememebr one of these "rich" guys he sepculated on coal.
He would by many, many tons then resell it for profit.
Every two years he bought a new GW and gave his "old" one to his wife.
Mind you this guy would litterally put 65,000 miles on a GW in two years!
He had a standing appt for oil changes and tire rotations and the old Jeeps never had more then 75,000 miles on them when they were traded in at the 4 year point. His wife didn't drive much. The guys in the detail bay hated him as they had to clean the coal dust out at the 2 year point before his wife got the Jeep.
