Sorry, USA to Euro translation:

Brick= A vehicle with the aerodynamics of a brick, box, block. Also the nickname of the van I drive for work.

Gas hogs= A vehicles the eats a lot of fuel similar to a hog/pig eating. Very low MPG.

18 wheeler= a tractor trailer truck, so named due to having 18 wheels. Also known as a class 8 truck or a semi-trailer. You may not have them over there.
