    What’s in there?

    Let’s play a game... Can anyone guess what is in box #1?

    Your first hint is: 90% of the people on this forum won’t care and/or even know what it is

    All great guesses so far... I would say Ares and Paxton were the closest.

    Hint #2: Most car guys would have at least heard of one, but not sure how many (especially millennials) can say that they have ever seen one

    After careful consideration, I think that crate is jam packed with a 1:1 scale model of Trumps balls.

    So some of your guesses in a way are actually pretty close...
    1. Ironically, there actually was a 707HP Hellcat motor in this same exact crate a few weeks back, but that is long gone!
    2. With all of the talk about a sexy mail order bride, brings me to the third and final clue... there actually was a song written about what’s in the crate, because she’s so fine

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
