Honestly this is absurd. These death machines shouldn't be legal in europe. That thing doesn't even fit in the parking space, even though the parking lot has the biggest spaces in the whole city. The ~~Golf~~ Polo is so small in comparison, it could even hide in front of the engine hood of the truck.

EDIT: It's a Polo and not a Golf, I don't know my cars, sorry for that!

The golf will also get farther with the same amount of fuel. Way farther.

That's a Polo, the Golf is a tad bigger

In the States, the same choads that drive tankmobiles tend to complain about fuel prices and how it’s all big gubmint’s fault for stealing their fun (fun being defined as the ability to do 95 mph on the interstate and still pay under $50 for a tank of gas).

Just imagine those people being forced to pay European fuel prices...

Just yesterday I got gas for our car at a convenient price of 8.2$/gal (1.98€/l). E95, no idea how that compares to whatever the hell they sell on across the pond.

The last fuel station I saw on Sunday had E95 for €2.389/l - at a motorway in the Netherlands.

The car doesn't have a flat tyre, it's actually in the parking space unlike the truck..
