As lame as I think these are, when I was spending some time in Germany I remember reading that they were rated at around 85-90 MPG on the European cycle. Much Smart(er) than the gasoline models we have here, if you ask me.

A beat-up 240, sedan or wagon. It could take a lickin', such as this one that had a wood-burning stove installed.

I remember watching this live...if I remember correctly there was still something like 1,000-1,500 feet available when it left the ground. Either way, batshit crazy/cool.

Any sort of Subaru wagon. Four doors, space in the back for a stroller, all-wheel drive, reliable, womanly enough for a mom and manly enough for a dad, and a stellar safety record to keep the kiddos safe.

This guy! The Samurai couldn't stay on all four wheels for its life. I have to say I wouldn't mind owning one though...

What it's really going to have to come down to is finding a deployed US armed forces member who is stationed over there and chose to ship his or her Marauder with them. Or, we could meander a Panther forum and trick a member into enlisting...

Does it count as a jeep if it includes an extra axle and costs as much as a single family home?

...why would anyone do this? CP.

Looks like it's in great shape. Toyota pickup truck with reasonable mileage that can still likely take the beating from hell and survive? Under 10? Not a bad deal, I say NP.

Gonna go with the late F-body, LT1/LS1 Camaros equipped with the T-56. Plenty of durable burnout power, a great sound, and CHEAP as they come. They're also just very, very cool.

Can't wait for a diesel version!

See, I can understand the novelty of having a unique plate. I don't think you need FOUR HUNDRED options to choose from, but it's nice to have a selection. For the longest time Maryland offered only one or two options aside from this atrocity:
