Damn I always said Americans couldn't build a truck to stand abuse. We can build a sexy one with mega horsepower , but never to do that. :shock:

Couldn't believe the d@mn motor would even start again after being flooded for 5 hours ...

Kip is crazy. But it's all not that farfetched. The tide was pretty funny though.

Just watched a special from that car magazine ... 100 best cars - and the worst cars, too ... they set up 5 cars, nose down, and used another to topple them ... :lol:
Got to hand it to them, though - that guy doesn't give cars a break - lighting up tires, spinning all over the place - even running old and new mini against each other on an indoor cart track :shock:

Btw, his top 10 lineup:

10 - BMW M5
9 - old Mini
8 - Nissan Skyline GTR
7 - Corsair (sp?)
6 - Range Rover
5 - Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona
4 - Aston Martin Vantage
3 - Ferrari 355
2 - Porsche 911 Turbo
1 - Jaguar E-Type

Guess his choice is a bit leaning towards British cars ... but what can you expect from a UK car show ...

That Toyota went on to have a caravan dropped on it, it was driven through a shed, it was torched and finally placed on the top of a 240 foot high rise building that was blown up.

The Toyota was still driven into the studio. They make 'em tough.
