any land rover kicks ass IMO but holly's bro had one for less than 6 months before he decided it wasnt worth the headaches it had created.... and it wasnt very old either, maybe a year or 2.... he had a discovery II... ended up trading it on a brand new A4 :drool:

and i wouldnt consider a subaru if you are interested in clearance cuz they just dont have it. otherwise, yeah they have all the other capabilities of a small suv....

I picked the Durango, mainly because I had owned a Dakota 4wd pickup and had no problems with it.

Outback as 7.3". Escape has 8" as a comparison. Integra only has 5.9".

So, I don't know. I guess it depends on how big this snowbank is h:
