    Ya don't even have to buy one if you work down at the wharves (stevedoring). Unload the vehicle transporters and you can play on all the new and used vehicles that come in...

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    This is where I'm at odds with the US (and Australian) vehicle markets. They seem to keep making these massive vehicles with massive engines.

    I believe in making tiny vehicles with MASSIVE engines...like the TVR speed 12....Triumph Rocket III...much more effective.

    Course I haven't got the trouser department problem that makes people want big vehicles...what? you didn''t think the 'big' in Big McJim referred to my stature did you? I'm just a shortarse really.

Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true ... they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so all are easier to fool." -- Wizard's First Rule

    Hey another product from the nation that has brought us more useless substandard vehicles than the eastern block.

    And they wonder why the American Auto giants are shrinking?

    11.5 metres with 2 slides outs isn't big enough? But I like the way you think.
