      That was the selling point for this whole video and he didn't even steal it or really talk about it. That's a new kind of clickbait hell D:

    One of my friends used to be a repo man, he told me about this one van he took back in the 90's that belonged to an employee at McDonald's. Well he found the van in the McDonald's parking lot and he had the keys to it. So he took it through the drive-thru and ordered lunch. The girl that handed him his food noticed he was driving her van and said "Hey! That's my van!" and he said "Not anymore!" and then he tossed his business card in the window.
