Sorry... I missed that... I heard something about ... "picking his nose without a care in the world."

Hey RP, Am I suppose to remove the link? I don't seem to be able to edit it.

No wonder they dont like us, we drive like buttholes!

Please tell me that weak beep for a horn was not the Humvee's horn....

I wondered what they were going to do when they came to that bus, cant just bump him out of the way and he wouldn't have anywhere to go either.

Great clip!!!!

Yes, a HMMWV's horn is that pathetic.... also has the acceleration of our trucks in fail-safe mode, pulling a 10,000 trailer (naturally aspirated 6.5 diesel--GM)

Bet that driver has a hard time controlling himself when he returns to civilization.
