I liked the quote:

At higher speeds... The "Land Rover Discovery) required a tight grip on the steering wheel"

Yup.

"Toyota's new 4Runner descends a hill at a controlled 5 mph using its high-tech Descent Assist Control (DAC)."

yeah they said that Rovers HDC was similar to 4 runner? I thought it was the other way around..those SUV's look like mini vans.

Have you seen the photos? At least from 2001 on the web... I think I MIGHT have seen a puddle of mud there - not sure the Discovery would have made it through that ten foot long mud puddle!!

They really need to start adding more classifications to these cars. Score them for on-road, off-road, etc...
