Meh, poor marketing suppresses great ideas. Sure, someone can use it for an evil of sorts, but that doesn't make marketing bad - just the marketer.

Can anyone explain to me why we need 4 wheel drive passenger vehicles? I have one, an F150 it stays on the grounds, it is not licensed. It pulls wagons when the ground is dry. When the ground is wet it's useless. I use it for mobile storage.
I agree with the sentiment. But before anyone starts reaming about their farm or whatever - I'm first going to point out that this is a general case. To put it in more simple terms - if everyone drove around in farm tractors - it'd be more clear that Mrs. Jane Doe on suburbia street doesn't need one

What bothers me the most is when people think their car can stop better with 4wd :/
