But 600+ horsepower, 4wd drive, I guess they handle pretty damn good too.

Doug shows up before the sun comes up, then leaves after sunset. 7 days a week is his normal. He may take a couple sundays off to see his mom. I don't think he even has his boat in the water yet.

Must be northern Italy

Vicenza.....they are paratroopers (hoo yah) and take all the good looking women away from the locals...

Aviano is where all the fighter jocks take all the good looking women (or guys since we have some awesome female fighter pilots now)...
