what about Clydesdales?
I don't think they have any Amish people in Russia.
I live in amish country and haven't caught any of them doing that. 
I have seen them out at all hours of the night, with open top carriages in freezing weather, and even a sleigh when it was snowing good.
Amish people are totally grassroots DIYers!

still 5 HP, but about 1800 Lb/ft of torque, (or is that thrust?)
At what point did the Amish decide not to keep up with fashion? Have they always been a hundred years behind? Or did the reach a point and say "this is nice! We will stik with this"

Yeah, I actually thought so too, until about 20 seconds in when I started to wonder about what happens if that horse takes a fall and has to be euthanized for a broken leg.
That actually happened a couple of years ago - there was an Amish street racing incident where 2 horses had to be put down after colliding during a buggy race.
Winkies are a Hoot!
That is some Mad tyte 1 Hourse Power YO!
my theory: 150 years ago. we all lived like like the Amish.
Meh. Abe Lincoln invented that on his way to school.
But, did the Amish 150 yeas ago live like 150 years before that???

That thing totally needs to be slammed, kitted, and flush yo.
Didja hear about the GRM subscriber who married an Amish girl?
Now he's driving her buggy!
A friend of mine told me about one time when he went to the local rent-a-kart track and found about a dozen Tibetan Buddhist monks in full traditional garb (think red and yellow toga-like robes) doing laps! My hometown of Ithaca is the North American seat of Tibetan Buddhism, and apparently the monks were enjoying this unique pleasure of life absolutely immensely, with giant grins and laughs the whole time they were there. I wish he had pictures...

And people said having the Runoffs at Mid-Ohio for so long wouldn't affect the local community...
Seriously, though-I still have dreams about cresting a hill on my way there and wondering WTFolly was that rolling roadblock in front of me (cue threshold braking). As a Southern Boy (tm), I was used to coming across the occasional tractor or combine, but I'd never seen a horse on a paved road before. I didn't know it was Amish country the first time I drove up there..
