| Short video at link. For those who might not know, the name Jeep comes from G.P., or "General Purpose" vehicle. It went from inspiration to production in about a month or two. Try doing this with a hummer! I'm having deja vu when I see how complicated a hummer is compared to a jeep, and I think about German tanks vs. American or Russian. Sometimes quantity and/or simplicity wins.

| #8 Entertaining. Prior to performing this bit of stage craft, a significant amount of prep work was done. I've disassembled, rebuilt, modified and reassembled numerous Jeeps. No matter how well drilled the exhibition team was, there was a LOT of advance loosening and removal of a whole bunch of fasteners. Among other things. |

| #6 Pas problme, en Français québécois? Canadian isn't a language, "Canadian French" is how its generally refered to if done properly. Je demand a Celine Dion La chanteuse pour ton réponse. Elle dit "Jeep" |
