My grandpa and grandma always had cadillacs as their 'goin to town' car. Once, when I was at their place they decided they needed a new car as the old one was getting on. We all piled in one of his work pickups and drove to the caddy dealer. Gramps was wearing dirty bibb overalls and gram was in an old house dress, they were working folks is all. Well, we couldn't get a salesman to even look at us, they were all busy with obviously more well healed and successful people....these hicks probably were just there to see how the "other half" lives. There was ample time for them to pick the model and color they liked and after an hour or so a salesman finally asked if he could help them. Gramps said "we want that one" pointing to one of the models on the floor, the guy kinda smiled and said he'd have to sit them down and qualify them for a loan. Gramps then told gram, "pay the man Queenie" at which she pulled a big roll of 100's out of her apron and started counting out the money. The guy's jaw dropped to his chest....it was a hoot. You can't always judge people by their clothes
