Brantley Gilbert wants his cougar back. Sorry you mature ladies out there, we're talking about a car! Back in the day before BG hit it big, he tells GACTV his band was desperate for money. “I had a ’68 Mercury Cougar,” he said. “We went flat broke and needed some equipment. We got rained on and we didn’t have insurance on anything. I loved this car and I sold it to a guy for four thousand dollars. He told me that day that he’d sell it back to me whenever I wanted for four thousand dollars. This was probably six or seven years ago.” The good news is, Brantley was able to find the guy with his car. The bad? The price went up along with his fame. “He wants twelve grand for it!” Brantley said. “I am not going to pay him that much! He’s going to have to come down a little bit.” Somehow we think he can afford it! Read more here. BG is on his Hell on Wheels Tour right now. See where he's going to be!
About Me: I should have known I was destined to have a career where all I do is talk when I was in kindergarten at Plattsburg Elementary in the late 60's.
