American vehicles in Sweden?
I noticed through pictures and videos, that Sweden has a love for modern American vehicles, like the Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram, Ford Super Duty, as well as other American vehicles like the Chevy Tahoe, Ford Explorer, Ford E-Series, Chevy Express, Nissan Armada, Ford Expedition… I wonder why Sweden likes these big American cars.
Sweden is covered in snow for months so large 4WD vehicles are popular, they use chains much of the time outside towns
They need 4 wheel drives for the constant snow.
Hi Harvey in your dreams maybe they like cars that can cope with snow and ice best. TOYOTA and other japanese 4x4 ISUZU and HONDA as well as Mercedes and BMW which give less grief than SOME piece of american rubbish.
It's a culutural thing - after Second World War, Americans and US folk culture were very popular. Gangs in Sweden called themselves "raggare" and liked to drive big ol' American cars very slowly down main streets hoping to pick up girls ("ragga"). Of course this could only happen in summer.
That culture has never gone away, evn though those cars (and modern US cars) are useless in a Swedish winter.
- Won't car companies release old-style vehicles? Old-fashioned vehicles but with modern internals? Like the Chevrolet in Pulp Fiction or 1966 Ford Thunderbird and such. They're so beautiful
- What Ford vehicles with a 302 motor comes with a 4 barrel carb (and only comes 302 with a 4bc)? I have a 1989 mustang gt motor and I'm making it carbureted and I'm looking for any vehicle with a 302 that carries a 4b. I'm going to a junkyard where they don't help with finding vehicles, so it would be helpful to know what vehicles only have a 302 with a 4bc, that way I can look it up on the website and know exactly where its at.
- Is Ford switching all their vehicles into ecoboost engines? Why is Ford heavily advertising their Ecoboost engines a lot? I know is suppose to boost up fuel economy and horsepower but they taking out V8 engines. Other Auto companies they refine their V8s and make them fuel efficient or at least increase mpg. Ford is like ditching V8 and put V6 twin turbo to solve their problem quickly to me. Anyone agree?
