H/t to Rich. Dodgy guy with payroll company amassed applause-worthy car collection, which a bankruptcy judge ordered sold. Which cars would you buy? Here are my favorites:

2010 Alfa Romeo TZ3 Stradale Zagato: $489,000

I was reading this story about a couple of guys driving their Tatras to the Arctic Ocean when I learned of two Czechs who drove through Africa and the Americas after World War II in their Tatra. I watched Afrika I and Afrika II. I have not yet watched Argentina to Mexico. It's all in Czech and there are no subtitles, but the story is clear and fascinating.

I have a lot of thoughts about this aluminum camping trailer. I learned about it in this cool article about a road trip in a couple of Tatras. One of the participants and his daughter started this company to sell these very expensive ($200,000+) trailers. I can certainly see why a Tatra lover would dig this 1930s design. The original Bowlus inspired Airstream trailers. But who is buying these expensive (and cramped) toys?

I did a quick Google search and learned that my TSX wagon only has a towing capacity of 1,000 pounds. WEAK!

Apologies to our friends in Kazakhstan for posting this, but there is a Land Rover with Chilean plates and a Tatra in the video.

When I build my own army after the apocalypse, I'm signing a contract with Tatra.

Auto Neurotic Fixation.

I'm off to Minneapolis.  Hopefully, I'll get a chance to check this Tatra out.  No posts until next week.  I'll be tweeting.

Now, I just gotta find the words.
