No matter. In his latest effort to balance the budget, the governor is cleaning out the state's storage sheds and holding a garage sale on Craigslist and EBay.Need a 2001 Ford Focus wagon with 110,059 miles and Schwarzenegger's autograph on the visor? Someone did, offering the high bid of $1,625.01 for the old state car as of Tuesday afternoon.
The governor got the idea to sign the visors from one of nearly 1 million people who follow him on Twitter, and he jumped on it."I look forward to selling these signed cars and making some $ for California," the governor tweeted last week as he autographed the visors.
