I was hysterical. I watched the episode in the middle of th enight and woke my family up I was laughing so hard.

I spent the better part of th enext day trying to find a Robin to buy.

holy bat poop.

I remember seeing those POS when I was over there in the Navy.....

If you're looking for one, I would fathom (old Navy term) a guess that you can pick up one of those fine examples used in the show pretty cheaply.

Ask them for the read one that ended up at one fathom depth.......

Howdya like the cork gas cap?

DKW Moped motors......49CC.....not brake lites, turn signals, speedometer....top speed of 40 unless you had a big lunch, then less.

Imagine driving one of these Peels on a US Interstate?

I liked the part where he asks "How do you drive a Robin?".
To which the answer is "In a straight line!".Not completely
correct - but my memory's not what it once was.
