Here's the story about the Texas City plumber whose Toyota truck was used by ISIS for those that haven't read it

did he win that? why didn't he just remove the decals himself?

[–] bizarrocullen@lemmy.world 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The dealer advised him not to remove it because it might ruin the paint, and he won the lawsuit

The article doesn't mention whether or not he won the lawsuit. Where did you get the info on him winning the case?

Edit: I found the article - He won an undisclosed sum of money

Almost as lazy as the guy who didn't bother to read the article, amirite?

think you need to edit your comment mate, "almost as lazy" as an opener only works if I had called him lazy.
