FDIC auctions of bank assets are generally pretty nondescript offering office chairs, computer equipment, banged-up file cabinets and other office supplies. But the assets of the bankrupt Community Bank of Nevada includes a 41-foot yacht. The 2005 41' Carver Cockpit motor yacht has cherry wood bulkheads and cabinetry, a wet bar with an ice maker on the deck and twin Volvo 375-horsepower gasoline-powered...
While the standard Scion xB isn't even close to being the coolest toaster compact hatch in the market, the same can't be said about this retro-flavored pickup conversion of the economy car that made its debut at SEMA.
