Greetings From Helsinki: Ford F-250 7.5 Edition

Helsinki is Europe's northernmost capital, so being welcomed here with bit of a snowstorm on the first day of February didn't come as a surprise. As you can see, the locals also choose their vehicles wisely.

The Finnish people might be famous in the automotive world for giving us more talented rally drivers than any other nation, but it's a lesser known fact that when it comes to getting their groceries in the capital regardless of what Mother Nature is doing outside, they temporarily turn into Canadians and choose the only right tool for the job:

A 460 cubic inch V8 and many tonnes of American steel.

Doing 50 mph with twin straight pipes must feel like more.
