AYE but pack em in tight like the old how many in a VW bug

AYE, but VW's were known to float.
How about an old Trash Truck. If you used the packer ram, you could really stuff it tight ...S

Just in case the car floats the Navy will launch a $41,300 Stinger Missile.

I didn't know those missles were equipped with a "Terrorist-Seeking" guidance system. Outstanding idea, though.

Fully packed automobile = better kill ratio.

BTW: The photos are an A+...

Donnie, is this a new way to desert from the Navy when you're on the high seas?

For all you know it could have been one of those amphibious cars....

I bet that was the first Ford Falcon to go 0 to 120 mph in a few hundred feet!

Were there any amphibious Falcons?

Mmmm... Red '66 Falcon Sprint with 289 V8 and convertible top. </dreaming>

They shoulda used a Pontiac Aztec instead!

Oh... AYE!

Reminds me of the time that Cycle World dropped a Honda Trail 90 (or was it the 70?) from a helicopter high enough to achieve 160 mph before becoming a greasy crater. It was at the time when the 160 mph barrier remainded elusive to the crotch-rocket builders, and the headline of "Honda breaks 160 mph barrier" in the April issue was a crude joke. Funny stuff.
