    It never crossed my mind to ask the government to buy me a truck, or possibly some trucks.
    That would be great if they would do so.
    Amount of taxes that I have paid the last 35 years they should owe me something.

    I have a truck bank loan underwritten by the SBA. They guarantee the loan by 75% which mitigates most of the bank's risk. I looked into a possible grant assistance program initially, it was a dead end street for me. Your mileage may vary.
