No mandolin content and granted, I live in Mississippi and spend way too much time in pawn shops looking for deals on vintage instruments, but......
I've noticed that pawn shops loan money on "rims" usually with the tires attached! Talk about a hard way to make a buck on a hot 100 degree day.....the customer drives to the pawn shop, the manager goes to the parking lot, they negotiate the loan amount, then the customer borrows a jack and removes the rims -- one at a time -- replacing them with his "spare set" of stock rims that he brought to switch with, usually two in the trunk and two in the back seat! Just for fun, ask yourself, "how fast can I change four tires?" Anyway, it would probably take me an hour, probably two hours with breaks......
Anyway, most of the cars I see around here are of the rusty Chevy variety, rather than the Bugatti.....
And, not saying my life is perfect, but I am grateful that I have never had to "pawn my rims" -- knock on wood!
