   I used to go "baja" with a 2WD chevy pickup so I don't disagree; but, most   
   people who spend upwards of $80K for their brand new SUV perhaps don't.   
      
   To be clear, I'll accept any facts but the only one who provided facts was   
   me on the percentage of people who go off road with their expensive SUVs.   
      
   The rest guessed, and since they only guessed, they deprecated the facts.   
   I'll change my mind on a dime if new facts arise, but they don't have them.   
      
   So we're stuck with the facts I unearthed, at around %10 to %20 at best.

   The problem with being an intelligent person on an Apple newsgroup is   
   you're the only one that can comprehend facts - the rest hate all facts.
