Anyone?

I've been seeing a lot of trucks around here in Germany. Dont know why Trucks arent very popular around here. All I have seen so far are single cab 1/2ton Chevy and Dodge trucks.

Go to Colombia, there are more Chevy trucks there than here.

Of course, they all have California plates.

When I was stationed in Germany you could count on one hand how many fullsize trucks were around and still have a few fingers left. There was one guy who had a Z-71 and between the gas prices and driving thru some towns that had narrow streets it made it a challenge. He also said that since He had his truck shipped to Germany it voided the extended warranty he got from GM.

Yeah, the warrenty goes bye, bye! I was going to bring my 2005 Mustang GT with me when I moved here. BUt, I would have lost the warrenty and I didnt want to have to fix the problems that might come up with it on my own. PLus, it would have cost about $3k ot ship it over here and get it to pass the German vehicle inspections. Im on a tight budget as it is. Add a gas guzzling Mustang and I'ld never make it.

Hey what's up Paul. How long you in Germany for? I'm sure it is quite different over there than it is here in KC. Did you ever get done with Madfish?

Im here in Germany for as long as I want. But, I'll be here at least 2 years. My fience(or however its spelled) has 2 years left at the school she's going to. After that we'll either move back to KC or somewhere else.

No, I never got it done. I got it closer to being finished. I got all the body work done and all the major stuff. but, sadly I had to sell it. I needed the money. I was going to sell it and keep my Mustang. But, I couldnt afford the Mustang over here. When we get back to the US or to where ever, Im definetly getting another one. I loved that car. Never had a Mustang before that. But, I caught the bug.
