    "Don't Mess with Texas"! has been the litter slogan for years in Texas. This is one of their latest billboards. I couldn't believe it was a Maverick!!!

    That's not nice at all, there are so many ugly little cars out there why pick on Mavs. Oh well, at least its on a billboard, can't be that ugly if they put it up for everyone to see.

    I was thinking that it was your color Derek!

    with nice wheels!
