    Here too is a mix of everything featuring subcompacts, compacts, midsize and fullsize hatchbacks/sedans/station wagons and mini-vans. Locally the endangered specie is the 4 door sedan (unlike Germany, the two door variety is already extinct except by some collectors) and the rising star is the min-van, all sizes !!! Adding to the picture are a steady supply of mud-shy SUVs. All coming with a diesel powered variant in the catalogs, the most popular models are the RangeRover, the Discovery, the Porche Cayenne and the related VW Touareg, the Jeep Cherokee, the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Chevrolet Tahoe 4 doors standard chassis, the Toyota Rav and Land Cruiser, the Hyundai Santa Fé and the Nissans Terrano and Patrol. The promising outsider is the pick-up with the Toyota Hilux snatching the lion's share.

The airbags had been deflated (suspension bags) for a few weeks, so it was a little rickety on its way up..... If your not expecting it, its a little wierd..... Glad my Jeep doesnt do it.....
    That sounds kinda cool. I bet it looks slick to people standing around it too!

    Pretty much the same deal up here in Erie...only there are a little more than a few Mercs and Beemers! Luxury vehicles are getting a little more common as the economy up here grows.

    We have a mix of everything.

    You have the 'rural' people who have the pick-ups. And then you have the 'urban' people who have the sportier cars and SUVs. There's not really one dominate thing.

    We have a lot of people who have the SUVs for status symbols only.

    Also, I haven't seen too many Hummers around here.

    Pickups and normal/economy sedans. The number of Jeeps and other SUVs have gradually been replacing the sedans around here though...

    There are 2 kinds of 'really cool' cars here:
    1.)A Hummer H2.
    2.)A Bigass pickup truck with confederate flags flying from the back.

    You always got your rice burning pos's but here it's whatever you get. I personally want a new car, something refined, but I would take whatever is cheapest.
