Yo, Doc Dick C,
Some Industrial Archeology has revealed even more startling facts about the elusive Eleventy Three ("ET") which have now been confirmed by Digital In- Jeep-Cams which inadvertently filmed the ET in Moab. These new films show what appears to be Elvis driving the ET, wearing a sequined studded "Rocky Mountain Rendezvous 1999" T-shirt. While it is true that Elvi have been replicating faster than lies in the White House, and even falling out of the sky en masse for some time now, this seems to be the first real confirmed sighting of the King His-Own-BAD-Self, at least since his untimely demise in 1977.
As for the ET, it turns out that it is actually not a Power Wagon at all, but rather a Peterbuilt Semi tractor. It seems that from 1977 to 1987 the King had been hiding out in Wyoming, and performing diabolical experiments on the poor Peterbuilt. Subjection to nuclear radiation had shrunk it to its present size. Seeking to disguise the truck, and thereby elude identification himself, the King added "PowerWagon" script to the hood.
While it is possible that more Eleventy Threes have been created (perhaps accounting for sky-high priced rigs allegedly from South America which are advertised on this forum), aficionados of the PowerWagon who want to catch a glimpse of the ET may try their luck frequenting Gazillionaire enclaves, such as Aspen, where rich, fat and Too Old rock stars are known to hang out.
