    It has been brought to my attention that people around the globe do not realize how big the interest in american made automobiles is in Sweden.

    Therefore, I feel obligated to show my compadres a little fraction of how big it really is. This is a link to a site called GARAGE. When you enter this site, unfortunately, you have to be able to do some swedish. That´s where I come in.

    Click on the blueish "leaf" that says "Bilar". That is swedish for "Cars".

    Click on the "curtain" that says "Välj Bilmärke". That is swedish for "Choose Car-make".

    Voila, use the "dropcurtain" for you favourite model, and you might be amazed how many of "your" cars that ended up in Sweden.

    And remember, this is only a fraction of cars....

    Here´s the link:

    Enjoy.

    Sweden indeed is the US car walhalla of Europe (besides that it is the most beautiful country of this continent). Hopefully I can finally make a long wished trip next year: show and cruise in Vasteras (power big meet): probably the biggest US car meet in Europe (y)
