I'm actually impressed with how well that mini van was holding up. Even right at the end when it took a direct landing from the monster truck.

Well at least it gives the kids something cool to watch.

I mean heck they're destroying the engines, I'm surprised more dealers don't just smash the cars right there on the lot.

It could be like the first National Lampoons Vacation....haggle with the dealer on a new family truckster while they smash your old car on the lot.

I see a Saturn SL and a mid-90s Mercury Sable wagon in there. Not going to qualify, you morons!
