Why do we need to watch all those trucks and cars tear up our National Landscape in those TV commercials????

I'm sure there are animals/insects/birds that are near extinction out there and they take
$40,000 to $90,000 vehicles kicking up the dust and tearing through our rivers and water sheds.

Let me ask this: "When you look for a new replacement vehicle do those commercials
impress you to buy one"?

I'm be taking my meds now.
I agree with you. I used to do some exploring in and around Death Valley with a 4WD - you absolutely do not go fast, more like 1 or 2 MPH in the tricky parts, 10 to 15 elsewhere, if that. And you stay on established road/trails. Doing otherwise is irresponsible and reinforces the bad rap 4WDing has gotten.
