    VW Towing a 747?!

    Sure, it's a publicity stunt for Volkswagen, but we thought this was one cool picture, a V-Dub Touareg V10 towing a Boeing 747. The diesel Touareg's V8 engine managed to pull that 155-ton Boeing 747-200 for about 450 feet at 5mph, bringing it to a stop with its stock brakes. More dramatic pics, after the jump.
