I have a small disput with someone trying to tell me a Stock rangerover would outwheel my taco (lets just say with equal drivers to make things fair)

DTB · « **Reply #1 on:** Aug 05, 2006, 07:51:47 PM »

do u have a picture of said "taco" and "rangerover"? are these stock vehicles?

EDIT: just saw poll.......I voted for taco. though there is really only one way to find out. It would also depend on conditions, choice of tire, terrain, wheelbase, etc. It's hard to say right-out.

oh my! one of those rangerovers? what a POS! I like how he's lifting tires on that anthill. get him to follow u down some trails and find out. DOIT!!!

Crawler677 · « **Reply #3 on:** Aug 05, 2006, 07:56:01 PM »

its between me (i would consider myself a pretty good wheeler) and a kid who i dont think has ever been on a real trail in his life

edit: i'd like to have him follow me down a trail once my SAS is done

the nerve of some people.

i had a kid claim that his 92 ford ranger on 32s with no locker would out wheel my runner..as it sits now, so i told him to follow me....he stoped saying that after 20 secs

A Range Rover in the right hands can be very capable 'nuff said on that issue.

A Taco in the wrong hands is a very capable vehicle all by itself.

The whole thing sounds pretty pud to me. Just go out and see. As someone said above, bring a strap, or make him call AAA.

Are we talking real range rover, or is that one ifs? The older ones were incredibly able vehicles in stock form, straight axles and air bag suspension.

Let me have both vehicles for 2 weeks . I will drive each one through the Rubicon and back. Then do a report on them. Also, let me have your camera too so I can take some pictures.

Can I go with you?

A 15 year old kid and his mommys car are a force to be reckoned with.

These Range Rovers can wheel better because they cost more and well just because. You should respect the brat because he is better than you.

If I see one of these on the trail I run the other way, especially if they are stuck. I mean I wouldn't want to disrespect their abilities by pulling them out with a Willy's Jeep, that would just look bad. And besides what am I supposed to hook to the hood ornament?

If they were smart and I'm not saying they are, they would have enough money left after buying that turd to afford AAA anyway.

I would find a muddy trail and maybe even an ATV trail through the trees to help with getting that mud off afterwards.

That should do the trick, after his parents see how dirty the precious RR is and all the scratches, he won't be driving it anymore.

BTW, No diving in the gene pool.

RustyToy · « **Reply #16 on:** Aug 08, 2006, 07:30:51 AM »

I have driven about a hundred of them and they are all crap!

CRAP!

Range Rovers are awsome rigs!!!!!!!!

for sheep farms.....a Taco on 33" would be able to out wheel it in the PNW. However, that Rover would lay the smack down at the mall!

Rocksurfer · « **Reply #18 on:** Aug 11, 2006, 10:11:09 AM »

I just checked some stats and Toyota is in the top 5 in initial customer satisfaction, in the the top 5 for overall customer satisfaction and in the top 5 for overall cost to maintain.............

............Range Rover is dead last.

WHICH ONE WOULD YOU WANT TO BE ON A TRAIL BY YOURSELF WITH?

DTB · « **Reply #19 on:** Aug 25, 2006, 10:27:55 PM »

wow, it's been awhile and no one has any response to this thread in favor of Range Rover. Guess it's now considered fact.

I did double check Rocksurfer's statistics (Consumer Reports) and they are in fact true.

Crawler677 · « **Reply #20 on:** Aug 25, 2006, 10:31:46 PM »

<- we need one of these with the japanese flag

? explain

kneedownnate · « **Reply #24 on:** Aug 26, 2006, 11:01:06 AM »

Then there's this to consider too. This could just as easily be any number of ford vehicles though

DTB · « **Reply #25 on:** Aug 26, 2006, 11:06:11 AM »

man, ive only owned ONE British car (Triumph Spitfire) in my life and that thing caught on fire ALL the time! seriously! Although, I know they aren't exactly a british company anymore (Range Rover) its still too easy to poke fun

What did you think I'd post something like that without having research to back me up?

DTB · « **Reply #27 on:** Aug 26, 2006, 03:47:29 PM »
