Ahhh... Louisiana. The state for $40,000 public funded Harley Davidson Ford Trucks for Officials

That's got a nice ring to it. It should be our motto. After all, we're footing the bill for this truck in some small way.

Have a look at the article, or let me show you the good parts:).

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The state has purchased a $40,000 pickup truck for Insurance Commissioner Robert Wooley — a Ford F-2 that sports red flames on its sides, heated seats and a six-disc CD player.

In a letter to the Division Administration, an arm of the governor's office, explaining the purchase of the F-250, Wooley touted the Harley-Davidson designer edition's handling and reliability. The letter did not explain the need for the CD player, privacy glass, a diesel engine, a seat warmer or the truck's Harley-Davidson motorcycle logo.
