That is perhaps one of my all-time favorites. Years later, and having watched it a bunch of times, it still brings me to tears, especially when it goes into slow-motion.

Seems this couple was moving from point A to point B and needed to truck their Civic project car. They brilliantly rented a U Haul truck arranged some ATV ramps and pushed the car onto the truck. No wait, they tried to push it onto the truck. This is short but sweet!

Troopers said Replogle posted YouTube videos of himself speeding down Oklahoma City-area freeways in a high-powered Chevrolet Corvette. This image from YouTube shows a car westbound on the Kilpatrick Turnpike near Portland Avenue in Oklahoma City.”...

This looks like the boys at Fastrack and is a motorsports-related video.
