Something The US Isn't The Worst At

[Sionnach Glic]

So, is your neck of the woods more or less thin-skinned than this lot?

I am 39 seconds into it and I have already made up my mind... I'm watching this series.

You've not seen Top Gear before? It's great. I couldn't care less about cars, yet I love the show all the same.

Some other fun stuff they did:
Range Rover Vs Challenger Tank
Best Car Test Ever
Lorry Driving
Communist Cars
British Leyland

I think the communist cars is one of my favourite ever.

I think I'll see if it's available on DVD, it doesn't air here as far as I can tell.

[Reliant121]

Try looking at the videos first. The Communist cars and the British Leyland cars are some of the best.

Man, these are hilarious.

Being in a boarder state myself its a little different in Missouri. Its based on urban vs rural. Urban places in Missouri like Kansas City, Saint Louis, Columbia (also since its a college town) are very democratic / northern. But the lesser urban places like Saint Joseph and Springfield and I assume Joplin but I've never been there are kind of split but are more republican / southern further out you go.

Somehow I knew that it was like that, and I've never been close to there.

Lorry Driving

That's incredible! I'm a better truck driver than the Top Gear guys! I'm surprised they did so poorly, even with the smaller euro-trucks.

Man, these are hilarious.

A few more:
Make Your Own Limo
Roadworks
Cheap Police Cars
Caravan Holiday

In fairness, that was the first time any of them had been behind the wheel of a truck. Still hilariously bad, though.

I was 15, on a Houston freeway going 70+ mph my first time.

My dad is a d*ck.

Best Car Test Ever

Ford Fiesta beach assault.

See! European cars ARE useful! if only for looking pretty while storming a beach in a 1.6 litre standard petrol

I think it's functionally the same car as the Ford Focus. A friend of mine will be happy he could storm a beach in his bright yellow "golf cart" (as we all mockingly call it).

Different sizes. Our Fiesta is a lot smaller than your Focus. Our Focus is a hatchback, where as yours is a saloon style.

Our Fiesta is a lot smaller than your Focus.

Quite possibly, yes.

Our Focus is a hatchback, where as yours is a saloon style.

Not always. My friend owns a car identical to this:



The 2003 Focus hatchback.

Every time I pass by the gun range, I can tell if he's working, from the road a mile away.

[Reliant121]

Identical to my dad's old one. 1.8l petrol. Great car, if a little heavy.
