Best Selling Cars Around The Globe: Myanmar Keeps Its Secrets
Over the last couple of weeks, your favorite travel agent has taken you on trips to Belarus, Eritrea, Chile and Georgia (mmm, am I really your favorite travel agent? I’m getting a little worried…).

I'm more interested in what a mafia don would drive. So what about Transnistria
I've noticed that Thailand hasn't been done yet, could you do that country next? I'm interested to know what other vehicles, besides pickups are popular there.
