Corrected entry: Hank, Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer talk about the fun they had in Cotton's Cadillac when they were kids. However, in the season 5 episode "When Cottom Comes Marching Home", Lane Pratley comes to take the Cadillac away because Cotton is a few months behind on payments. This means that Cotton couldn't have had the car since Hank and the other guys were kids. Lane Pratley is around Hank's age, so he wouldn't have sold Cotton a car back then.

Correction: In the season 3 episode "Nine Pretty Darn Angry Men", Lane Pratley stated "I own Pratley Ford, Pratley Honda and I got my eye on Pratley Cadillac- my daddy ain't doin' so good". Presumably the elder Pratley sold Cotton the Cadillac before his son bought his Cadillac dealership.
