But it's not the first time Max Motors, which sells Chrysler, Ford, and GM vehicles, has had a gun promotion. Last year, according to the New York Times, the dealer gave its buyers a choice: a $250 gas card, or $250 toward a gun purchase. Few took the gas.
Listen to owner Mark Muller's story in the video above, or better yet, check out the Flash graphics on his website.
