Look, I don't make the rules.

Always was. I really dislike the way everything has to have a fancy name - "downcountry" was and is exactly equivalent to "gravel" in the bke world. Marketing glurge.

I came to the same conclusion about size. I didn't realize exactly how uncomfortable I was "wheeling" the Excursion until I wasn't. It was fine for random desert gallivanting and forest roads, wonderful even. But getting out by myself on a technical trail or tight canyon shelf road just made...

Toyotas are so boring. Get a Lexus. :cool:

I'll take "How to find the upright church-going fellow in a group of offroaders" for $200, Alex.

Gotta give him a hand for that funny shirt though.
