That's full on! The boulder story is amazing... And seeing all of those poor written off subaru's and the stories that go with them is mind blowing.

I also wonder why they don't do it here.

Cheers

Another thing they don't do here is offer the ownership badges of number of Subie the badge is on with a chosen sporting icon - must be up to their marketing gurus and pencil sharpeners

from Western Australia (home of the sport of lounging)
SPORTS: The premier sport in Westralia is however "Lounging", a hugely popular practice where a vehicle powered beyond the abilities or control of the drunken and/or drug affected occupant, is driven at high speed into the lounge room of an unsuspecting homeowner. Variations on this popular pass time are "Bedrooming" and "Pooling", the latter being a homage to the late great Keith Moon. Competition is graded by the allocation of points for each metre the vehicle's radiator intrudes into the private property and extra points are awarded for clearing obstacles such as garden walls, gnomes, concrete Aboriginals, children's headboards and coffee tables.
