At least the tractor should be easy to get out of the bed...

At the very deepest roots of the rally car was the 1979 Lancia Delta, a front-drive shopping car based on the even more pedestrian Fiat Ritmo/Strada.

Nothing says get off my lawn quite like an M1 pointed at your head!

At least once you get out of the Chicago-land area it opens up to 70. Agreed on the road conditions, though. It's true for central IL too. For Sweden hit the nail directly on the head...

Those pesky choppers are trouble. Just ask Matt Farrah...
