DoogyRev Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Where I live most 4x4 are owned by school run mums. Total PITA when they clog up the roads in their RR evokes or X5's dropping little Jonny off at school or whatever Does the actual footprint of road space differ from an Evoke to lets say an Audi A4? umm not really. So regardless of what they drive they would clog up the roads . . just don't drive your car when its school run time 1 Quote

DoogyRev Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Some great 4x4's being called out by you guys, if people start throwing pickups in the mix though there is going to be a serious list! Early Ford F150s are pretty cool, great v8 rumble Bob has a 5.7 V8 HEMI . . . . ohh yeah If your gonna change the rules and no pickups . . then I am going to plum for this . . . The new Ford Bronco SVT . . if it actually materializes I will be trading in the Jeep for one Quote

Jetpilot Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 This might be a little contentious. ......but don't buy a 4x4. Unless you live in a field and own a horse Buy a proper car!!!

Drayvn Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 You guys are missing the one true coolest 4x4. Bowler EXR S Supercar like performance, even on track. Off Roads better than most of them, indestructible and the S version can be outfitted with quite a bit of luxury if you want or spec it for a rally instead. That's my pick, starting from 155K tho is a bit steep! 1 Quote
jimboy2 Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Grow a pair and skip the 4x4 and go for a Merc G wagon 6x6 lol 1 Quote

Lived literally 2 minutes in the car from school and barely ever walked. My mum had and STILL has a 3dr Toyota Rav 4, fantastic loading capacity for a small vehicle, its also pushing 13 years old now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Ekona Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 That's one ugly looking vehicle. Quick, bring back the X6, all is forgiven! Quote

I like your thinking! God that is one depressing car both inside and out! SQ5 is a good shout but possibly out of budget for when the time comes but nonetheless a nice car.
