Dave the way I am reading your definition a 4WD is defined more by ground clearance than the number of wheels doing the driving - interesting.
Provided it can carry all my gliding gear and tow my trailer into and out of any paddock to retrieve when I out land I don't need a monster truck (most of us don't) lets be honest most of us spend most of our time on the black stuff. "Soft Roaders" SUV or what ever you like to call them make excellent gliding vehicles - what else really matters. SDF PS - Mitsubishi may have some problems selling most of us the "Outlander" however _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David and Justine Olsen Sent: Tuesday, 13 February 2007 8:44 AM To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.

So you can't call them "four wheel drives" just because all four wheels drive! "Real" four wheel drives go places where mere "all wheel drives" dare not venture. Hey!
