What the heck do animals have to do with this? I thought we were talking about humans traveling over rough terrain, and to that extent, Rupert is correct in that no car or machine can compete a person. :huh:

Your tongue never makes it to your cheek until after everyone has called you on being a dick.

People are not even the top in THAT catagory, which was the purpose of the mountain goat pic (since humans are a form of animal).   :hammerhead:

Actually, the best off-roaders ever made are shoes.
Not the best off-roaders ever, since, they have no ability to produce locomotion on their own.

Yet, you never add anything more than, "I thought we were talking about people.....yada yada yada."

Seriously, you suck at calling people out.

:ohyeah:

:rolleyes:

Funny how you always manage to find a way to become an even bigger asshole than previously imaginable when anyone who demonstrates they are right and you are wrong.  

:rolleyes:  :facepalm:

Name one place on land that people can go that those animals cannot go better, faster and easier.  :huh:  



I'm an asshole, sure, but I don't think anyone but you is concerned about that when it's directed at you.

And you can't ride a mountain goat, duh.

(re. G-wagen)

I never said it was a bad vehicle, in fact, I said quite the opposite.  What makes it a lesser vehicle is that is has no real combat experience to speak of, and, all the others I mentioned have seen extensive combat with ridiculous reliability in the field, and legendary toughness and 4x4 capability.

Get involved in a couple of wars and use it extensively, then we can talk about it. 

:huh:

On a personal note, diesel clatter is one of the all time great audible crimes of humanity and when I'm out in the bush having a day of offroading, the last thing I want to hear is that gawdawful noise.

Shut up, foo'! I ain't got time fo' yo' jibba-jabba!
