    I need the Discovery to howld maye Chardonnay and crystal glasses whilst I spend time in Peppy Grove. (For all you commoners from the East Coast your closest equivilant is Toorak or Snives) . . . .In reality I love the challenge of 4wding and being able to pass on what little I know so that others may enjoy their 4wding

    that needs to be a more than one selection poll...


    I mainly use it for its carrying ability and the ability to get the gear to where I need it to be so I can do what I do...

    since i havent gone on a joy trip yet without doing what it is that I do (but thats half the fun for me) I guess its the most appropriate one.

    the family enjoys coming with me and I like to be able to get to the places that the hippies in bongo vans cant get to so they cant annoy me.

    can you add another

    So I can negotiate the sections of roads that the "Making Queenslands' Roads Better" campaign missed, such as the Bruce Highway and most of the minor Roads.

    Like all 4WD owners, I enjoy using up our natural resources with incredibly poor fuel economy, damaging our bush and beach trails by driving like a hoon as much as possible, and running over small children in school zones.

    Why isn't this a poll option???

    Shame you can't vote for two options; I like to get away from it all....by going places only my 4wd will go....thus leaving the hoards behind.

    I resolved that dilemma in the same way you did.
    I voted for the first one because some of the places I like to go to in my 4WD are places where the great unwashed are unable to go.
    So while a few of the others contain elements that are relevant, going to interesting, remote or secluded places is the main reason.
