We are kind of inundated with ducks here.
Overrun, overpopulated, and overtaxed.
They're not native, and the naive around here keep feeding them.
Actually they're feeding the predators by proxy. A clutch hatches, and since they don't go very far, you can count how many become a snack for foxes that have moved in as a result.
That is why I would be surprised to hear that one got successful enough to go car shopping.
A duck walks into a Mercedes dealership, and starts looking at cars.
A salesman approaches and says "can I help you sir"
The duck says "yes, I'm looking for a comfortable, yet fast car"
"Don't worry" says the duck "I have a well-paid job, and I can afford a Mercedes"
After some time the duck chooses a car and they retire to the salesman's office to make the purchase.
While the salesman completes the paperwork, the duck produces a large bag, and places it on the desk.
The salesman looks inside the bag, and sees it's full of feathers.
"What's this?" says the salesman.
The duck says.....
"It's a down payment"
