for the petrol heads

this is a very popular car/SUV here with the richer members of society but who needs a truck that can get to 60 mph in under 5 seconds and the price tag is staggering.

in all honesty, who is going to take that thing anywhere near the offroad??

If I am going to buy myself an SUV, you an be dang sure it will end up off road on a very regular basis

Like the cadillac and lincoln SUV's.... *shrug* Must be a status symbol that you can buy more vehical than you will ever need, much less use

That's just an excuse for richer mums here to own a 4x4 to take 1 child to school.

Pathetic.

 

I owned a Porsche one time.




Had to "porsche" it every place I wanted to go. Dang motor would just up and quit.

 

I used to own a vette once . . . :cool Sadly, to be honest, it was not a Corvette . . . it was a Chevette . . . It did have air conditioning, but when you turned it on it was like kicking the car in the groin . . . roflmao Off topic I know, but the whole status symbol idea made me think about that tin can. Most certainly NOT a status symbol . . .

I didn't know Porsche made SUV's. Like Calltaker said - who in their right state of mind would even consider spending that much money on a motor vehicle, and then taking it off road? I guess if you are really well off, then it might not seem like that much to you.
