    That was funny as hell. Love cartoons, this is good stuff. Great animation, really. Yeah, I remember these little Piaggios from when I was in Italy, they were everywhere.

    @CptSevere: There's at least one of these down in Biz' that was in the Art Car parade during the Coaster Races last Fourth of July. I think it's the guy that has the Yard full of really weird French/God Knows What stuff at the top of Tombstone Canyon right below the Tunnel.

    Quite nice.

    I like short films. I have eaten octopus one time. I will not revisit it.

    No way that's a stock Piaggio Ape. Definitely some tweaks under the hood. Like the Minis in the Italian Job.

    That's not a Honda Fit -- it looks more like a Merc A-Class. The windshield angle, flat tailgate, and hazard flasher activation with the airbags say that it's not a Fit/Jazz...

    @quayzar: I stand corrected. It looked odd from the camera angle -- figured it could have crossed the border as a different 5-door of sorts.

    That made the OJ chase look positively riveting. Whirrrrrrrrr. Like a lethargic Prius or something. Cops must have been laughing their asses off "Now you try it, hahahahah. Lookatim, lookatim..."

    This is just like a movie bar brawl where four guys take turns beating up the "good guy", one at a time.

    If I've ever got nothing left to lose, I'm taking on the CHP in a trophy truck.

    700hp to get away feet of suspension travel for clearing curbs or ditches or whatever and a 100 gallon fuel cell to keep it going long after the helicopter runs out of fuel.

    Suck it, coppers!

    I'm pretty sure that an integral part of the PIT maneuver is that other cars are RIGHT THERE to block the car from going anywhere afterwards.

    I think they f'd that up.

    Fit is go go go go go go STOP!

    LA cops always seem to love doing the PIT, yet on TV they're always marginally successful with it. At least this highway appeared to be pretty empty.
