I've been in Seoul S.Korea for 2 weeks now and have yet to see any fat fendered Fords. In fact i have seen exactly one f150. 97% Hyundais and Kias. gas near 8.00$ a gallon.

If you make it to the shopping district (Itawan?) there is a Pizza Hut (Korean style) that serves a mean Pupperoni pizza

I seriously doubt you will find a fat fender in korea; however, the best shopping would probably be the AF base it's been over 12 years since I was there so things may have changed.

A shopping tip - It is bad luck for a Korean to not make a sale to their first customer - I used to go see what I wanted the day before then rush around in a cab the next morning about 7am a buy everthing up - The will usually come right up to the cab to meat your offer - Thats a least half if not two thirds off price listed.

So that means that you can buy a Benji or Lassie burger for breakfast at a huge discount? Sorry Dick. I couldn't resist that. That really is a good tip. East Gate market has some amazing things.
