    4wds and Kiwis?

    The things have been annoying in the past when travelling in the car but these days i can honestly say i am starting to loathe the fucking things coming back from Christchurch today in the ute we came across 2 both late model polished up complete with tyre blacked tyres/chrome rims and all the wank you could think of having a "hold up everything in the passing lanes cause the turds run outta puff fest' which went on for bloody milesWhat is the it seems ever growing attraction to these ridiculous things?cant imagine they handle there fucking gutless and most of em have more chance of winning lotto than going off road.If the things covered in shit with dogs on the back i can understand but the rest...must be plenty on here that own one enlighten me please.Cant see through them cant see round them they hold up everyone else on the road,there a fucking disease.That feels better rant over.

    Can't fit 7 people on the bike. Picnic / holiday spots can be a little more accessible.
    I can fit behind the wheel without bending my neck or leaning the seat. Costs less than. The equivalent sedan. Can tow easily.

    Bonus? Never had a Yaris or similar pull out on me. Easily fits the double push chair and the dog.

    You forgot towing the Rayglass or Premier float

    One glitch in your rant...unless it's permanent 4wd a big majority wouldn't know how to get them into 4wd.

    Most of the proper off roaders that actually see the dirt, travel at or just below the open road limit

    STOP with the sensible stuff bugger yaFair points indeed,may just be me and the fact that i do a lot of trips up to Christchurch to see family ie its a bloody boring long straight for 2 and a 1/4-2 1/2 hours made longer by the same old thing someone in a 4wd hell bent on using the length of every passing lane to pass one car and then holding everyone up period.

    That generally applies to the horribly outdated Japanese diesels, and not the modern European stuff.

    they some fucking self centred arrogant gay shit.
    Not once. ONCE. Have i seen one demonstrate what i could call 'good driving'.
    Most dont even make the 'average fuckwit' grade.
    Maybe they should add trap doors at dealerships. As soon as shits signed *schwing!* into a spiked pit with rabid dogs and mutant piranhas.

    I have just found my next vehicle. Mitsubishi's new Outlander PHEV. 1.9lt/100km! That's 3000km per tank of petrol. Priced at $60k. It's powerful enough to match the V6, too.
    You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
    Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!

    Jesus Ed those figures are the reason i wouldnt buy one,flannels are cheap at the Warehouse and waters still free or if thats to hard i would just watch the jug boil.Like riding a bike driving a car is supposed to be enjoyable not an alternative to counting sheep.

    yep, when we were looking for a Station Wagon SUV's were everywhere & cheap too; you actually have to pay a premium to own a normal sized car nowadays.
    We did end up finding a reasonable priced SW but still could have probably got an equivalent SUV for half the price, probably the biggest reason there's so many of them on the road, they're the cheapest option for a car.

    @Akzle is this your way of owning up to having one?

    That would be a nice ride.

    I wouldn't mind a Cayenne Turbo. They handle fucking well for what they are too, that fantastic suspension keeps the body quite level during cornering compared to just about any other SUV.

    For that kind of money I'd still rather have a car than an SUV, but it's still a pretty dope ride.
