This is awesome, Ed! I have to stop watching or I won't get anything done today. "Driving in New York City" with Harold Lloyd and Babe Ruth is great.

Sixball, most of our 4x4's aren't getting through that stuff.

And when we roll them over we don't drive them away often. Dodges had a great reputation for being tough. Even into the mid 60s every Mother Lode town had a few 20s Dodges that showed up during deer season. The last one I remember seeing was tied bumper to bumper to a Jeep CJ with a Buick v6 and was pulling it backwards down the main street in Murpthy's California. A disagreement about the worthiness of the 20s Dodge as a back country cruiser ended in a contest between it and a new jeep. When they went by me the jeep was smoking two tires in vain. The discussion started and ended over a few beers at the bar in the Murphy's Hotel. That was before Yuppies took over the Mother Lode. ::)
