‘Hawaii Chevrolet Dealer Crushes Auto Competition’

December 21, 2008

There’s a lesson here:

Island Chevrolet general sales manager James Severtson arranged for a Chevrolet Suburban SUV outfitted with massive tires costing $5,000 apiece to drive over a Honda Accord.

On the first attempt Friday, the monster truck blew a hydraulic hose and leaked vital fluid while the Honda remained intact and ready for more.

After several hours, the truck was repaired and driver Ryan Kepiki tried again, this time with a Hyundai Excel sedan parked next to the Honda.

Kepiki drove over the cars’ hoods, destroying the windshields to the seeming delight of the rush-hour crowd.
