Anyone wants to do it on his/her SVX?

I doubt he can double gas mileage but double his risk.

But there's some good control there.

PS: is it legal to do it on the open road here?

hahaha, I am currently located in Qatar. All Qataris love that old Patrol, only the two door, and it can go up in price to 25000 US.

The reason is because of its lightweight for the purpose you saw in the Vid.

That is the Qatari style... they love doing that in all kinds of SUV's:

One more thing... GAS is extremely Cheap around here, it is not related to worldwide pricings.

I fill up the tank of my Nissan for $9

It is backed by the Government. And I think Qatar is the cheapest amongst its neighbors and possibly worldwide...
