Baron, just out of curiousity, is the title of this thread just to "advertise" the video, or do you really want to know about the ricers here?

Well their friends drive crappy jap trucks that stall when its awesome 5ftlb's of torque are needed, they arent smart enough to shovel the little snow pile out of the way, so they pull the car over the snow pile.
The blind leading the blind, wow........
At least the guy has more trunk space now!

Tyler, you're right, its a Geo Storm. most of the Geo line were made by Suzuki (Swift = Metro, Sidekick = Tracker) or Toyota (Prizm = ?). but i'm not sure who else makes the Storm.

I believe the Storm is a rebadged Isuzu. The Prizm (and Nova in the '80s) is a Toyota Corolla.

They should have added some NAWZ to that truck. That woulda helped.

It you watch closely the way that car comes appart It leads me to believe that the car had some major repairs done at some time to the back of the car. The spacing on the welds is WAY to far appart. The also appear to be rosett welds and not pinch welds that would be factory.

Still funny as all hell.

Grim, you'd be surprised at some of the things i've seen come from the factory. we had a brand new Camaro come in off the truck when i was working at the dealership, and during PDI the tech noticed a rattle in the door. turns out they left out most of the adhesive that holds the door skin to the door frame.
