I was gonna say a Range Rover?! Then read the lotto words....yeah, lol, that would be the only way. If you're rich enough to not give a fuck.

I actually saw a youtube video of a dude taking delivery of his brand new Rang Rover Autobiography, 150k new sticker, they were in the dealer lot getting ready to drive off when some interior switch (for something I can't remember) stopped working suddenly.....LOL. They are so bad they come broken from the factory!

Oh for sure. People who actually go off road won't buy (or at least use) a Trackhawk.

But definitely the Trackhawk is good for basically annihilating stoplight drag races since there's nothing you can drive that's so easy to go from 0-60/80mph or so and basically win against 99.9% of the cars out there. You'll have to compete with a Model X P100D or very top end cars like the 720S. Otherwise most cars will have trouble putting down power but with the heavy weight and AWD and the high HP it works to it's advantage.

And with that said, you'll also need to be ok with massive fuel cost and the inconvenience of likely filling it up at least once a week (if you use regularly). Which I assume is not an issue if someone already has a mind set to buy a Trackhawk.

Caddy is 17.5MPG if you're cruising at 65...at 85 it's 15...
overall combined was between 12.5 and 13.5MPG.

What's the rating in smiles per gallon?

To be fair, even though the Golf will easily do 34-35mpg on the highway it gets like 13-15mpg if you really flog it.

Maybe it's the heat or the Florida gas or maybe my foot has more lead in it than I thought but I have never ever netted more than 14.5 on a full tank in the V. Ever.
The smiles are definitely cool, but fleeting.
J drove the V for 2 weeks before we got the Volvo and she was the one that saw firsthand what bad gas mileage it got. She's like, I literally have only gone to work 5 miles
away for a few days and took the kids to school and it's down to a quarter tank again. I'm like yep...welcome to my world

Looks pretty sweet, especially with that saddle interior. Of course I'm a little biased and nostalgic, since I just replaced my old V70 with a RDX last week.

Why don't you think of the important things before making these type of life-changing decisions.

ahem, and doesn't let his passion for cars ever get in the way of family time or hanging out.
Probably helps that I stopped drinking altogether too!

Ody is getting roof rack/cross bars tomorrow along with some H11 HID I had from her old van for fogs...
Amber LED DRL and 25MM rear spacers already on. The paint wasn't waxed much before we bought it
but the maintenance was spot fuckin on and one owner on this thing...it is clean as hell.
