I would have thought the Ferrari 250 series cars were pretty successful... maybe too broad a category?

Yeah... That was a fancy wheelie or something. Not a jump.
Nissan Patrol = cool
Click-bait headline telling me there is a jump when no vehicles in the video ever actually left the ground = not cool
I demand a jump in exchange for my click.
Edit: Brought my own. You’re welcome.
I've got an '08 Tundra... Double cab, 2wd, SR5... with the tow package and 5.7... We don't take it off-road much, primarily used for pulling our camper. It tows the ~7k pounds (bumper pull) of camper just fine, and get's about 10mpg doing it. We get about 15 or so mpg in normal, mixed-mode driving. It's a fine…
When you watch it full-screen, you can see that it's lines from the dry dock - looks like they "winched" it in to place.
I wondered that too... seemed odd/random to see a dude in Europe just rocking a Bulls hat...
Oh... look... F.I.G.s...

Thanks for sharing. So very awesome.
Wonder what it'll be... 8,500-9,000? I'd guess somewhere in that range. Going to have to keep it short of the 1500/half-tons surely...
Up to 7,000 pounds... better than I was expecting...
While still crazy awesome... I was marginally less impressed when I realized they weren't balancing the wheelie with throttle so much as just dragging the ass of the sandrail. Again, ridiculously cool, and amazing machines...
I miss Steve...
Something me and the boys in the office contemplated was that the car may not be legally imported in to the states... So he might not have to worry about the blown engine at all... (could also have been the reason he was "reluctant" to stop...)
I want to know why it looks like it has the front clip off a Ford Taurus...
That's crazy, and pretty interesting - thanks for posting that. I learn something new every day. Jalopnik rules.
FWIW: In Kansas we don't have inspections. There are quite a few death traps rolling around the flatlands.
Want. Because of the torques.
As an avid motorcycle rider, I can honestly say I have no desire to lane-split. People can't figure out what the fuck they're supposed to be doing in/with their cars half the time it seems. I have no desire to try and cram me and my 900 pound Ultra Limited between the lanes of two cars (much less two moving cars) - I…

If it was Ferrari, good for them... (assuming it was Ferrari) You can't hardly blame them after the F150 bullshit with Ford.
