      Far as I know when something dies in a car there is nothing that can get rid of the stains and the stench. Many people crushed a car even by leaking food and rotting inside, it's that bad.
      So it got to be something else. There could be a fight or struggle and some sort of drink was spilled in there coffee or anything that leaves stains. If it's blood that would stink forever...

      pretty sure that part has some creative fiction. The part about the blood potentially, too. You can see far more than just blood under a black light, any liquid really. It's possible, just not entirely known. if it was cleaned before auction, I'd be curious if they hage no hazmat requirements when it comes to cleanup. I've done crime scene cleanups and we had hazmat requirements for disposing of stuff.

    I have known this guy since he was born. The story is not embellished, because I have heard it before and been in the truck. It is what it is. I'm 6'5" and have to step up to get into that sucker. He insisted we go for a little ride in it, must have been sometime during those first couple years. We took off down the road on a chilly Georgia evening, headed down a big four lane highway. Entering a sweeping corner at 55mph, he jammed the throttle sending the beast into a four wheel. smoking, drift. We came out at somewhere near 90 by the time it straightened out. I owned a C5 Corvette at the time, but didn't ask to drive the truck. Did a couple four wheel drive donuts for good measure on the way back to his parents home. All good fun.

      My bet is that it was a key to the drop location of the drugs at some shady motel. The owners never rented out the room and knew what was going on so there was no need to keep the room number on the key for the feds to track down if they got caught.

      Yeah maybe there’s a hotel room with a satchel full of money in the air conditioning vent. 😁

    The way he talks about this thing , I’d say the interior has a few added stains after he took possession of it 😂

    This guy is a fantastic storyteller. I usually don't care too much about cars and trucks, but I was glued to the screen for the full 18 minutes.
