Agreed. Unfortunately I can see them doing really well over here. Not a day goes by in Chicago where I don't see multiple Range Rovers carting around one person and their only cargo is a grande Starbucks...

I understand their direction though. Again, in Chicago I see a lot more X6's than X5's and surprisingly a fair amount of X6M's. I've only ever seen one X5M here.

Hopefully with the new CRP technologies we will see the weight decrease significantly in the coming years so that vehicles like the X7/X8 can exist while still maintaining a hint of fuel economy.

Either way, should be an interesting couple of years!
