Enoy! For me it is a "Must see"
The car was on a german selling platform after shooting the film...

That's pretty cool. You're right, the Jeep is a leading role, or perhaps a direct object for the leading role.

Perhaps they're poking a little fun at Americans and their big gas sucking old jeeps with cow skulls on the front.

At least they showed a nice clip where we can hear the sweet exhaust note of a 360. Sounds to be running pretty good.

Don`t forget: for a lot of German/Austian Guys are the Jeeps and of course the Harleys are the epidome of the american way of life!
An V8 / V2 (Harley) Engine is automatically America! We have a lot of Clubs and events with fans of the american "feelings".
In the 80/90`s i had 4 pairs of western boots, and today 2 pairs of "Red Wings"

Isn't the old west often viewed as America's great, I guess architypal, defining factor? Like how Italy has ancient Rome, Scandinavia: Vikings, Germany: engineering, Egypt the pyramids, Japan the Samaris? -That's what I've heard anyway.

Sorry, getting off topic.

yep. BMW and Mercedes Benz are considered a luxury and cost too much for the average Joe around here, while they are dime a dozen in Europe. Sounds like it's the same way in Europe with our Fords and Chevys! I live in a rural area anyway, so most of what we have around here are dusty or muddy pickup trucks with gun racks and dead elk in the back during hunting season, as my town is surrounded by pine forest and a mountain range with hundreds of miles of dirt trails through it. We also have beat to death compacts off the navajo Indian reservation just a few miles to the North. In my town itself there are alot of SUV's, most of them about 10 years old. Some of the wanna-be gangster kids get old Honda Civics, paint them black, install a huge muffler, and think they look cool. -They don't, and the cars sound like lawn mowers.

I don't think the VW's and BMW's would do too well on the potholed dirt road I live on.

The town itself of Flagstaff, Arizona is sorta stuck in time. Most of the buildings downtown were built about 100 years ago. Route 66 used to go through town before Interstate 40 bypassed it in the 1970's, so we have alot of old 1950's diners, gas stations, hotels, and car shows. In September we have an anual 450 car show where people from all over the state show up to show off their old American cars. My Wagoneer is always a staple there.

The Grand Canyon is an hour drive, or two hours on the railway, to the North. To the East and West is desert for hundreds of miles except for one meteor impact site. To the South there are big cities, scenic Sedona, and the ghost town of Jerome.

The cool ones here mostly "turkish" guys, with old BMW E36 cabrios, big muffler , some centimeters deeper chassis, and always with a stone on the gas......Mercedes and BMW are the typical cars for them, when the cars older they can buy them, and drive without any service, only gas and go ahaed...

Our streets are all well, but in the last years they get too potholes, and every day when i drive with my DOG Mercedes Wagon, its like a stick in the heart when i didnt saw a pothole -))))

So i understand why you have this cars....

And now i drink a glass of "Jack Daniels" itis too an typical american thing -)))

that movie sucks!

just went for the waggy, but a couple of youtube flicks do better, soundwise and everything else. Spare it and be happy if they don´t translate it

[Wackyneer]

I guess my secret smuggling spot in my Waggy isn't a secret after all.

IFSJA members need to start leaving comments on Youtube. I started- who is next???
