Hehe...well, we're related. The "Germanske" language-tree.

The film seams to work ok, it was just my internet connection images/smilies/tongue.gif

The fun starts at 03:40


In the end they say that the SRT-10 did the same time as the Focus RS around the track.

The Ram SRT-10 with 500 HP is probably the cheapest car you can buy (new) in Norway with that kind of power..
It ticks in around $90.000 USD. (witch is the same as a high-spec Passat)

English is a mish-mash of french, german, dutch, norse (the ancient one spoke by vikings) and celtic. But the basic grammar still most closely resembles the french one, as brought to england by William The Conqueror

Film works fine on my end.

Damn...that thing had almost no body roll...impressive.

My family has a lot of animals, and does a lot of "projects" (remodels,building sheds) so they have/need a pick-up truck. If you do need a pick-up truck...why not get this one? *shrugs* I'm not a big dodge fan, but I wouldn't kick this out of bed for eating crackers...

Although, I'd love to see a new F-150 SVT...bud sadly, no plans for at least a long wihle...

That is actually looks pretty good.

That's just not fun. Who said that trucks had to be boring?
