isn't that shaquille o' neal??

[Hoonigan]

isn't that shaquille o' neal??

Indeed he is...somewhat of a car guy too. West Coast Customs did some numbers for him including a Jeep Wrangler with large doors so that he could actually get in LOL

@MD, may I suggest throwing in a hybrid in the mix to balance out the representation for the car of the year? Something cool like a Tesla or something?

Car of the Year award nominee cars has to have/had atleast one example in SL and/or caused quite a stir among the local car community.Established mainstream models like Corrolla,or Prius in general is not considered.But if one particular Corrolla or Prius stood out from the rest for whatever reason it will get nominated.

He's not a car guy per say, as you say, he has trouble fitting in I hear he has a custom Ferrari without back seats and the driving seat relocated to the back. Tho I believe he favours a Ford F series. F650 IIRC

[Pericles]

Memory is not too bad

http://f650pickups.com/deez.html

Seems he had a F350 too

And this is why I remember

http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2245539

Apparently, the truck is too big to fit in most restaurant car parks so he has to park somewhere else and walk it.

One of many I guess.

He has quite a collection of cars..most with custom work to let the big boy get in

But then how come its not: hachirouku ganbare GT hachirouku ganbare? (I have no idea knowledge of Japanese, am just wondering why the whole phrase is not repeated. As in 'X' 'Y' GT 'X 'Y' Vs 'X' GT 'X' 'Y')
