    Ok, I test running out of gas, folks object. I test radar operated, dynamic cruise control in fog at high speeds, folks object. Maybe this will give them a sense of perspective:

    I wonder what his tire pressure was?

    it's about time someone made an suv that could do a barrel roll. would have saved a lot of lives back in the ford explorer days.

    Available at a dealer near you. I happened upon some ads for IIHS test cars the other day. Clearly marked as such in the ads, I will give them that.

    I have a thing against all the "look at me" ads showing illegal or unwise behavior.

    There are so many but they do attract eyes even if they don't tell the whole story.

    Jaguars are usually pretty cool looking, but this one looks no different than a Toyota or Nissan smallish SUV. Blah.

    No opening message of "Do not attempt to duplicate this yourself. The following stunt is performed by a professional driver and a specially prepared vehicle." :eek:

    Nice, but it's got nothing on Smokey and the Bandit or The Blues Brothers. And those high tire pressures? Couldn't have been that much higher than my Prime had when I got it home and checked them.
