    Power Wagon In Europe?

    you'd be mad. sure it's technically possible, but all the best spots are going to be inaccessible. you'll be 3 point turning and reversing to let people get past on any mountain road. italy in particular is the home of the small car, the roads are made for fiat 500s. I spent 10 days in...
