  10. Get these kids to …
    Get these kids to walk to school, or let them ride a bike. Under the age of 8 it is advisable to drive them to school, but otherwise pick a school near were you live, so that you can accompany them while walking. Better for the enviroment, your wallet and giving the kids exercise and fresh air.
    BTW; as a kid l had to walk and later bike 2 mls to school every day and of course there were perverts luring behind every tree. (LOL)

    Yea, big suv’s perform much better rollovers. They also do spectacular wipeouts in curves.

  13. Offroaders only …
    Offroaders only offer more protection when you run into a smaller car. Against a tree, pole, another SUV or upside down in the ditch where you will inevitably end up because they have poor grip, poor handling and poor braking you are worse off than if in a decent car.

    nah i completely agree the rest are pretty and unreliable, and i never said otherwise in my comment… One of my best friends is a Land Rover mechanic and i hear nothing but bad things, the Freelander is supposed to be especially but the Range isn’t as bad as most think according to him anyways…

    The Land Rover Defender is an amazing feat of engineering excellence. And the yuppie here is you thinking the company is called Range Rover. The Company is called Land Rover and the Range Rover is simply a model in their range along with the Defender, the Discovery and the Freelander!
