same thing here on the east coast of the states. Big cities built long ago roads not made for big trucks and SUV's but everybody has one stuck in traffic going nowhere and then no where to park it when they get home

Crazy aint it. I,ve no objection to farmers or people living in the country having 4x4,s. There are a load of guys around here who own them and cannot drive them for monkey nuts. I,ll nip out later and see if I can find one parked on the pavement, at an angle, or just plain bad driving and I,ll take a pic for a laugh eh? :wink:

The best ones are where you can clearly see the approach on the other side, and , if no one is coming, you can take off and land on the wrong side :lol: :lol: .I got a little rally based car and boy, it just loves those roads :lol: :wink:

I have a Saxo VTR. They really do handle well on twisting country roads.
They,re based on a model that won the RAC rally.
My mate Colin and I once raced heavy haul units around the Warwickshire countryside, he was in a 8 leg 250tonner and I was in a 6 leg 100tonner... ops: Shouldn,t have really mentioned that should I?
It was quite silly of us to do it really ops:
But bloody good fun :wink:
