spy ice cream truck
Plural: spy ice cream trucks
Every good spy needs an ice cream truck, right? Well, you know, for secret missions in suburbia. I'm sure it happens. Like in the Smith movie, or the one about lying. Trust me, it happens more than you might think, and when it does, you'll be thanking me when you're all prepared and scooting around in an ice cream truck. And not just for the rainbow bombs and choco-tacos. Or whatever it is kids buy from strange men in rusty trucks these days.

Of course, to complete the disguise, it has a warbly loudspeaker that crackles as it blasts Turkey in the Straw at ear-splitting levels. Luckily, you're on the inside, so you don't hear it so much. Unluckily, everyone else does. And since you usually patrol at night, it's a good way to make a lot of people really mad at you.
