I paid with a check for the last three vehicles I bought. Cashiers check for two and a personal check for my little truck. Some folks don't like handling large amounts of cash. The pile of hundreds for my A12 included a counterfeit bill and that was directly from a bank.When I bought Missouri the seller asked (on the phone) if I would be paying in cash . After I hung up I looked at the phone and said " how the Eff else would I pay"?
