This one..built by Arctic trucks....the guys that built the yota featured in the TOP GEAR episode that went to the magnetic north pole....is set to break the land speed record for getting to the south pole. Runs on some secret blend of biofuel.

When my ears start doing that trick, it's time to go to the doc, and get my ears flushed out. Don't let them use the syringe with a hose, I always got an ear infection right after those episodes. The favorite tool for the job is something like a water-pic..... its a brushless toothbrush..... pulses jets of water, does an excellent job, doesn't hurt, and leaves your ear clean as a whistle. (however clean that really is.....)

Depends on who's used it

On other news, my stepfather's dad did bring the wifey home, he's got an older Grand Cherokee, among other things, with some wicked lookin' snow tires, didn't even need 4wd to get up the hills here...

If I had a heavy load of wood in the back I probably would have made it...

Cool rigs for sure. I would love to see them in action and driving around, one would think they would rub those tires like mad.

Dlyter get the 12 valve.

I know I'm not worried about the tuner companies going out... I have a "Craftsman" tuner for my diesel. And no emissions BS to put up with until cats in the Common Rails and then DPF and EGR in the 6.7's. The government is so stupid. That's our tax dollars at work, killing a good company. Makes me wanna go crank the smoke screw down as far as it will go and drive through Seattle smoking like a mufkin freight train.

WATCH: Suspects in custody after high-speed, multi-city chase

I picked this up on the radio when heading home last night. During the chase, the reporters commented that someone in the vehicle had actually disconnected the trailer in the early parts of the pursuit when the SUV was in motion.
