    Tracking and SUV are not supposed to be in the same sentence. You cant make a SUV work on the "track" and you cant make a track car work in the enviroment that an SUV is supposed to work. You just end up with a useless car that cant really do anything well

    I give you the BMW X6
    The X5 LM was pretty effective. but that thing was nowhere near a production vehicle.

        I always thought the fx's set off the gaydar something fierce until I went and beat the piss out of an fx45 in the snow.They are definitely something I'd fuck around with in the winter.

          My dad went from an LR DII to an FX45 (to which I was sort of pissed about) but after driving it, it sure was fun. Definitely doesn't have any off-road capabilities, but a fun car nonetheless. And they handle great in the snow. We've never broke loose once heading up the mountain.

              SUVs are fuel guzzling, tire eating, road ruining, brake burning, rear view mirror blinding chick cars.

                  Because a 4wd vehicle that gets stuck in the slightest of snow is oh so appealing to own.

                        My girlfriend just bought an '06 FX35 about three weeks ago and I've really enjoyed driving it. It it's quick, handles great for an suv and rides more like a sports car than my e39. I drove it through the worst of the snowpocalypse two weeks ago and it tore through the snow like it wasn't even there. I have nothing bad to say about it.

                            This. 99% of SUV buyers would be better off with a station wagon. 1% use them for their original intended purpose.

                              If you think that's amazing, you've gotta try the FX50S, it'll make you think you're driving a hot rod!

                              Compared to the Euro competition, you save a good 20g's.
