Anyone remember the old Audi 5000s that were running over peoples' kids? Think the accelerators were sticking or something ? I remember it being a big deal for a while.

You have to take some of these things with a grain of salt. Not a few reviews said the Vehicross had no rear door handle, and one even has a picture of a guy using it right next to where it says it. I have an article that says the Vehicross is "not quite the renaissance man of off-roading" and that it is "incapable of dropping one wheel way down low to pick up traction while another is up on a rock". Say what?! Now how many pictures do you think we have that could prove otherwise?

Also, you may remember the Trooper/Acura SLX situation several years ago in which a magazine rated both models unacceptable for worse than average rollover potential. I believe later data showed the tests to be somewhat faulty.

Speaking of rollover stability, I go by a Land Rover dealership daily and they have a cobblestone path on a steep bank next to a lake, and they park the Rovers there for show, and you would not believe one of em'... parked on a steep left to right bank... if that thing were the least bit tipsy it would go for a swim. It's really impressive-looking.
