F-150
Reading time: 2 – 4 minutes
I bet if you look up most millionaires from the past they were driving a pick up truck! I know you think they were driving around in Bentleys and participating in high soceity events but truth be told they were driving right by you on the freeway. It’s not because they actually loved a F-150 it’s because they knew that is the most common looking, I’m just a regular guy and who would drive that if I had millions vehicle to throw you off of their scent.
One of the most famous guys who has his Ford Truck in a hall of fame was Sam Walton the guy who made Wal Mart. Even when his business was taking off he still maintained a regular guy kind of look. Now everyone in there knew he was the boss and knew he had money to burn but that truck made people think they were helping this farmer type of cat. The average cat is very visual meaning unless he sees some outward appearance of money he doesn’t believe it. If the house isn’t where all the rich people live in the city then it’s hard to believe he’s the rich guy. If the guy isn’t part of the political scene and rubbing shoulders with the political brass he must not be that rich. If he seems to be corny and doesn’t vacation where people go or he seems to be a NERD then he’s not the rich guy.
The F-150 is just a cat realizing that you don’t expect much from that look outwardly. Real talk especially if you live in a city where people drive a lot of trucks this look will get you passed up by a lot of people. It’s your get into your company and walk out with all the money pass that most cats unless someone snitches will never suspect. When you really get your chips right it’s of utmost importance to keep most cats out of the loop and this truck will keep their eyes from looping around to look at you. Also, this truck will make the cats who are blue collar respect your Hustle by thinking you are willing to throw a hammer like them.
Just stick this F-150 truck in your backpocket when it’s time to get dough. I know you want to show people you got it but once you really got it you don’t give a rat’s ass whether they know or not.
Extra: I was NOT put on by Ford for this post! But if they want to send me a F-150 I’ll gladly take it…

My father had a F-150 and that thing lasted for a long time! A very excellent product from Ford. My father has this friend who grew up with him in the old country, this guy owns a few buildings in his town and you would think he would be riding in a Benz or Bentley. Quite the contrary the man still drives his 1980′s oldsmobile 442 and and a raggedy Chevrolet Commercial Van. If you look at him you could not tell he has lots of money until you go to his house.
When I was in Sales we were taught not to judge a man by the clothing he wears. Most of the time the guy with the suit is broke, while the guy that looks like a bum is the one with the cash!!
So be careful in who you treat people you may be doing business with him!
It’s like clothes to me you have work clothes and you have play clothes. Rarely does anyone with money mix the two unless they happen to be selling clothes.
Somehow we have to get over trying to show everyone we are in business instead of letting our bank accounts show us that we are in business. No need for any outward show or flaunting of your success as it only breeds envy and jealousy.
Good info Freeman. My pops schooled me to this a long time ago. He has his own auto shop business and he always drives around in a beat up truck, van or low keyed car when he’s working. He kept his Benz in the garage as his weekend car. He told me that it’s best to have a cheap normal looking car for work so that people/coworkers can see that you’re on your grind and not trying to floss.
I knew this cat from my old neighborhood who was a hustler who dibbled and dabbled in both legal and illegal businesses. Dude was real low keyed though and never drew attention to himself by driving around in a Escalade on 20′s like you see these other cats try to do. Dude actually rode around in an old ass Toyota truck with a lawn mower in the back but he wasn’t cutting any grass, lol. He told me that people along with the cops will leave you alone if you make it seem that you’re a hard worker trying to make it day to day.
We’ll you’ve been schooled as most cats never learn this lesson. That weekend car is similar to the way I am as I try to be that way on the everyday with the clothes that are needed to do the job not the clothes that are supposed to impress.
It is a street angle for sure as most cats who stack dough know to be on the low. It’s just the young cats and wanting to be noticed all the time that end up getting got. Now ol boy with the lawnmower in the back is extremely low as he would’ve got by me too. LOL
