1) A Chevrolet Suburban, a truck with its back covered

1995:


2007:


Typical American humongeous 8 cylinder gas guzzlers. Also Suburbans galore on Craigslist, and much cheaper than the Harleys. In Germany they would be called "Soob-Oorbahn".

2) A part of a state that is narrow and sticks out at the northwestern side. Look at a US map, Florida and Oklahoma each have a panhandle. It may have something to do with political districts, I'm not sure.
