Egg Nog came up with a great idea to check the ownership of cars posted here.

Right. It's such a great idea to bounce around gaily and just treat some of these situations as jokes.

It isn't a joke though..

I'll admit I have done this sometimes myself, and I will put my hands up and admit to it..

I will not treat it as a joke.
