It suits the ghey US market right down to the ground where they are into ugly cars in a huge way.. look at the plstic jeeps they design! You can already see it with 24in wheels, 20profile tires, 40000gigawatt speakers in the doors, 12 spotties on the roof..

Yea, quite sad future of 4wds if thats the direction they are heading.
