Yank Tank

A slang word most commonly used in Britain and Australia.

A large American car. Usually has a large V8, handles like an aircraft carrier and gets extremely bad fuel consumption.

Basically any car that has been produced out of America from the 60's on, but some before then.

Some are:
Older Dodges
Buicks
Cadillacs
Some Chevrolets
Newer Oldsmobiles (Especially 1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass)
Plymoths (Excluding Prowler)
Imperials
Etc

(While Driving a Cadillac or any other Yank Tank)
Uh-Oh, A corner. Might as well get out and walk.
