    What's odd is that it's a US phone number on a truck somewhere in the middle east.

    How in the world a truck gets from the US to the middle east is another question?

    The article said it was sold and imported to Turkey, and the place in middle east is either North Syria or Iraq, the guys in hakies are the bad guys you read or see in the news.

    My first reaction was "who could believe the plumber had anything to do with the truck being sold to those guys?" and then I read the article and it seems over 1000 people did. Yikes! Talk about bad press.

    It seems, though, that they must be struggling if they are now using old Fords that were former service vehicles, instead of shiny new Toyotas, as was previously rumored.
