I was not impressed when I saw or drove it. No reviews have been very kind. Plus the VW appears to be a better car. Don't believe me? Check out:

Motor on.

Someday in the future, when gasoline burning personal vehicles have gone the way of the steam engine and horse and carriage, this thing will be in a museum as an example of the absurd extremes humans once went with burning up natural resources.

That being said, gimme gimme gimme!

It does not have a high enough ground clearance and big enough tires to dig into the mud!

It is a truck. And does a poor job a carrying building suplies. It is a truck that can't do truck things. Poeple call them SUV because they believe the public is to stupid to realise they are trucks. Nothing more. For that kind of money you can get a real truck and serveral MINIs or a Boxter, or Z4, or weel you get the idea. A Porsche truck is a stupid idea that is ugly. SUV Super Ugly Vehicle. Get a real car and

Motor on.

Agreed.


A 700 hp V8 turbo would help to drown out any of those doubts though.
