YES! YES! I saw one of these on the road yesterday (in white, no less) and thought "WHY IS THIS VEHICLE HERE?!?"

What designer styled that thing and thought "Yup, looks great — job done."?

Look closely. There's non-snow items in that whole explosion of snow that happens when the train hits it.

I don't know that I would have been standing there...did you see all the debris in that snowbank that came flying towards the camera?

It's pretty wild to me how much brighter LED light bars are than the old-school twirling-light specials.

I really, really, really, really want to see the footage from the GoPro on his helmet.

Pretty cool to see, and the bike looks like it held up well, but...

...someone at Alta needs to clean the lenses on their GoPros!

This, kids, is an Arri 1200 HMI. It's a wonderful, wonderful light. If I were to go rallying, I'd toss four of these on the roof. I have no idea how I'd power them, since each one needs 20 amps of power, or how I'd pay for them, since they're about $8k each...but it would be awesome.

Alternative headlines:

Where's the interior shot? You're telling me that in 1995, they were too cheap to throw a GoPro inside!??!

Hey, I spy Brian Cleary!

Fun, engaged DD use like 3,500 miles a month?

Yup, stick all the way for me.

Three words: Ocotillo Rail Trail. Start in Jacumba, end at the bottom of the hill in Ocotillo. Obviously it takes two cars so that you can position one at each end. It's 26 miles one way.

Oh yeah, you're right...I was thinking about them from 15 years ago when I first started driving.

He's right people, now they're crap roads. Just stay out of that whole area.

Doug, all the open-air shooting spots aren't closed. There's one that I go to all the time out near Ocotillo! It's almost exactly 1.5hrs from my place in North Park, driving at a reasonable pace...so not too close, but not too far. I usually take the Sprinter so I can fill it with target boards, shooting table, and a

Roads are awesome, food is awesome, weather is awesome, BEER IS AWESOME.

Awesome review. I picked up a 2015 Golf TDI in late October and have just hit 10,500 miles on it yesterday. It's got the 6 speed manual as well — really makes the torquey-but-gutless TDI fun to drive. I've had a blast in that car so far...

That gunman that comes out from behind the pillar with an UZI in his hand...is that Johnny Knoxville?

$100mil?

Seriously!?!?!?!

I had the chance to drive it, in a 2006-ish MBZ 320D or something like that. It was a 6spd, so fun enough, but what a road!

Interesting sponsorship...Visit Romania.

I have. It's an interesting country. They should do a hill climb on the Transfagarasan Highway in Romania.
