Oh yes, she also had a Land/Range Rover in mind  but I could also talk her out of that (phew)
But yes, Touareg is also a good option, but then again I hope that I can also drive the car from time to time and I am a Porsche guy  |
well I'd be curious to hear what your better half would say if you asked her how the folks in the other car that the SUV crashed into fared. If everyone drove a sedan that didn't roll right through all the other cars maybe everyone would make out better in terms of accidents.
To me its like plastic football helmets. If we stuck with old school leather helmets people wouldn't use their noggin protectors to do really stupid things.... like talk on the cell phone instead of looking out for the guy in the little sports car that just drove into the blind spot. I'm a cyclist, if I had a dollar for everytime an SUV driver came within a poker card of my pedal and never had a clue I'd be retired.
