Going Green: F-150 Packed with Wacky-Tabacky Busted

We’ll be blunt: Considering the amount of marijuana onboard, this truck could be called the F-420.

Recently, border patrol agents in Laredo, Texas, were able to answer the question, how much can you fit in your F-150? Well, when it comes to the sticky-icky, the answer is a helluva lot! The agents came across a Ford F-150 bursting at its metal seams with some very interesting cargo. According to KGNS, the driver and the passenger of the truck took off and left the truck at a traffic stop. Upon further inspection, law enforcement found that the F-150 was carrying several bundles of marijuana, with a street value of over $300,000. Maybe the agents were tipped off when the guys in the truck couldn’t stop giggling and munching on Cheetos?

It was a busy weekend at border patrol as a few days later a Dodge Ram was stopped with 1,782 pounds of Mary Jane valued at over $1,380,000. And a few days later, the reefer madness continued when agents responded to a call for suspicious activity in the area, but instead found several bundles of abandoned ganja. The suspects were arrested in the Dodge Ram, but the other suspects all went up in smoke. In the end, law enforcement seized almost two million dollars worth of weed, and one sweet F-150.
