If I needed 5 seats id have a mazda 3 wagon or something.... or better a rexxy. Its only that we need the 7 seats so I went a kluger... because we dont go off roading and I feel it stupid seeing all these mummies in prados and landcruisers at school pickup with bullbars whove never seen any mud before .... what hapoens when u hit a kid with that thing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even the my cars bigger argument is also flawed, ok your car is now the biggest, now someone Will just make a bigger one. Making the driving public more and more unsafe I know I have a 400kw+ falcon as a daily and that's silly but when I'm driving around town my car just behaves and has the safety features for the occupants and the public like every other sedan.
