Some wacky stuff in that link. I guess he likes giant cars? Interesting that two of the giant ones were American cars.

I take it the one is like a giant houseboat for the road? But look, it is a trailer, so what truck hauls that??

Apparently he likes things of scale so his "fishing boat" is appropriately an oil tanker.

I'm a stock kind of gal, but it sure would be fun to drive that W116 in L.A. County traffic. I'd be able to see around the SUVs for a change!
