Motorcycles can pull cars? Man, I wanna see them pull a semi, that is innovative and I'm guessing a bit greener? Anywho, japan has the most cars still being built per country. For a country that is that small, and outproduces the US and India, that's pretty crazy!

I can pull a car... As long as the wheels are free going, it's not hard.

Interesting indeed but from what it looks like, it looks like it's in China and not Japan. I see that the website is a .cn which is China and also the Japanese drive on the other side of the road (likewise the signs have no hint of Japanese). I would think it's Shanghai since that's where those old VW fox's are everywhere. If it was Japan, someone must either really love their VW Fox to pay the Sha-ken inspection fee or they are just stupid.

Yeah like I said, I wasn't sure where this was, but I figured it was cool, and I went with the title of the email. Still pretty cool IMHO...and yeah +1 for the VW Fox haha

Leave it to China to get the tow truck wrong... Man, I would NOT trust some chinese motorcycle tow "truck"! Not only is it a horrible concept, but it's MADE IN CHINA, and well all know what that means... Hell, they can't even make apartment buildings without having them fall over onto their sides! I'm not trusting some Chinese motorcycle tow "truck" with my subie, or any other car I might care about!

Hahhaha, damn, you beat me to the punch!


I'm worried about that 3 gorges dam that they are building... Biggest dam on earth, BY FAR! It's one of the reasons ammo is so expensive right now, they are sucking up the worlds copper, brass, and lead to make that damn thing... Lets hope it doesn't suck as bad as the rest of Chinese things, otherwise MANY millions of people are going to die when it ruptures! (or just tips over, lol)

Those motorcycles are secretly Autobots that are covertly hiding among us.
