    SUVs we like

    A fair amount of SUV bashing goes on on these threads, and I'll admit I've been a part of it. But, what are the SUVs we like? The ones that lack mumsiness and idiocy.
    I'll start; 5th generation Ford Bronco 302 5-speed (I don't think the 351 came as a manual)

    Land Rover Defender or Land Cruiser 80 series.. covered in mud. Pretty much anything being used for proper off-roading really, but I'd pick one of those two for the job. Probably the Cruiser. And if I really had a choice, it'd be an early 80s SWB FJ40 Cruiser LX. Diesel. Like the one my mum had when I was a lad (early-mid 90s).

    not one? this doesnt even have to be one that you necesarily want to drive, just one that has a likeable character.

    A proper 4x4. Defender, Landcruiser, Patrol, Old Rang Rover, ect.
    I want to die in my sleep like my Grandma, not screaming like the other 3 people in her car.

    There are 10 types of people in this world. People who understand binary and people who don't.

    Touareg V10 TDI. Drive one. You'll understand.

    From ****ing with people by inflating and deflating the airbags at stoplights, to the 550lb-ft off idle... It gets shit done.

    The original: Jeep Wrangler, not the new more comfortable more liveable ones either, I mean the two door ones with the cramped back seats.
