I like the idea, but the Toyota looks boring.

I'd much rather have a Subaru Outback -- with the new flat turbo diesel engine. Or I'd shell out the x-tra $$ for a Lexus RX 350.

Maybe on Mulholland around the same time I saw one years ago racing between Laurel and Coldwater.

It was hilarious until we all saw that the thing could handle.

yup - that concept has legs, doesn't it?

The Lexus is much more spendy than this Toyo.

The Sube is more of a cheaper version - so this thing seems to be slotted in between them.
