I was already wnating one before the Motor Trand article. Now I'm pissed. I bought my 03 brand new in January (I did get a good deal. $6500 under sticker). If I waited I could have picked one of these up. Now autos are gonna be able to smoke me. Man, I need some mods fast!

Shadows don't match
hate to bring up a CBS moment, but the shadows are wrong in the picture?
Note the red car in the center, the shadow is twice as wide as the car carrier frame. Remember that the sun is 93 million miles away, the only way a shadow can be twice as wide and still be in focus is if the unfocused light source is closer to the intermediate object (in case the trailers upper frame) as the frame is away from the car. Try with with a flashlight at home: Place a pen in front of a flashlight and aim at a wall. Vary the distances and see for yourself.
The shadows in the mountains appear to be at a different angle as well.
Maybe too many years looking at this in the military, but I smell a rat.

Those shadows look consistant with the curvature of the cars to me... the sun in that picture is in the top left, the same angle that it's leaving shadows on the mountains. You can't accurately tell the direction the mountain ridge is going in relation to the sun because of the shadows, which leads me to believe the shadows in the background and foreground are consistant, as are the ones on the carrier.
Besides, that kind of work would take hours to get it to look right, I don't see a pixel shift off-key on any one of those cars.
