Wow! This is amazing! I thought I was on track by having a theme for my truck so I could stay on task and not wonder off, but you...You built the actual truck. Very well done.

Newberg is just a few miles from me! My wife commutes to the winery through Newberg daily. I didn't even know about this connection with Top Gear. Nice!

Exceptional attention to detail and the video work is top notch. How do you film your driving scenes?

I had no idea either about the MetalTech thing until I started poking around doing some research.


Thank you so much, the tripod scenes are shot with a Panasonic GF1, for the moving scenes I used a GoPro mounted on a gimbal.
