I will admit to seeing the point of SUVs on-road around here now, especially after this winter. The roads are absolute rubbish at this point. They are littered with broken pavement and look for all the world like they'd been attacked with RPGs and strafing runs. Our two passenger cars are no match for what is now passing for roads. My wife and I like 4WD in the snow too: an Audi for me and a Subaru for her. :-) -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
