But such is the downside of Australian culture that they aren’t labelled as silvertails like aircraft owners.
Perhaps a little closer examination of the audit parameters is called for. Any motor vehicle over the luxury car tax threshold gets their attention. So effectively every Dodge RAM transaction would be on their radar (quite apart from the FBT also).
