US Chevrolet dealer crushes competition

A Chevrolet dealer literally crushed his Asian auto competition.

Hawaii Chevrolet general sales manager James Severtson arranged for a Chevrolet Suburban outfitted with massive tyres costing US$5000 apiece to drive over a Honda Accord. On the first attempt on Saturday, the monster truck blew a hydraulic hose and leaked vital fluid while the Honda remained intact and ready for more.

In the second attempt, a Hyundai Excel sedan was parked next to the Honda. Kepiki drove over the cars' hoods, destroying the windshields.

Severtson said the dealership had been planning the crush-fest for a while. But he said it was a happy coincidence President George W. Bush approved a bailout for US automakers as the weekend arrived.
