🚘 STEVE JOBS REPORTEDLY SWAPPED HIS MERCEDES EVERY 6 MONTHS TO AVOID LICENSE PLATES.
The $AAPL co-founder was known for driving a silver Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG around Silicon Valley without plates.
His solution? Keep replacing it with an identical car.
According to former Apple employee Jon Callas, Jobs arranged with a leasing company to exchange his Mercedes during the sixth month of each lease.
California’s rules at the time allowed qualifying new vehicles to operate without permanent plates for up to six months, provided they displayed the required sales paperwork.
The arrangement meant:
• Same silver Mercedes.
• Same model.
• A fresh lease before the deadline.
• No permanent license plates fitted.
The leasing company received nearly new cars it could resell, while Jobs kept driving the car he wanted, exactly how he wanted it. (abcnews.com)
California later closed that loophole: temporary plates became mandatory for newly purchased or leased vehicles in 2019—years after Jobs died. (arstechnica.com)
The man behind Apple’s upgrade culture apparently had his own upgrade cycle. 😂

Did you know the word “dollar” started as a silver coin?
It comes from the Joachimsthaler (shortened to thaler), first minted in the Joachimsthal valley in Bohemia in the 1500s.
The name later passed to the Spanish dollar and eventually became the U.S. dollar.
