When I was a kid the guy across the street always had IH Scouts as he
"worked" at the IH truck plant in town and I guess he got some break
on them. In the winter, even when it was like -20F he would go out in
the morning and start the thing, then floor it immediately, and stick
his window scraper on the pedal to hold it down while he went in for
his coffee and it warmed up. My dad would always be amazed the things
did not blow up from the abuse.

There used to be a kid across the street with an RX7 that thought he
could "fix" things by sitting in the street and revving the engine. I
always thought it would be fun to challenge him to start the car and
hold his foot to the floor as long as he dared, his RX7 against my
240D...
