Daver, is there actually a town called Wicked in MA? Cool. Is that from the witch trial days or something? :-)

Pautvx,

Mercedes ML55 AMG. The M-class flagship with a nice little 5.5L engine making about 350 horses at 3000 rpm. 376 ft. lbs torque. It has a electronic traction control system like our TOD. Does 0-60 in just a hair over 6 seconds. This is the one that has it all. Handling still suffers just because it is a tall SUV. And it gets about 13-14 mpg running on premium fuel and costs, oh, about 65K. :-) And it is probably difficult in a lot of off-road situations because it tends to be TOO torquey and needs a lot of finesse.

From what little I think I know, the Lexus RX is a decent off-roader, even though it is based on the Camry platform. The Acura MDX (based on the Honda Odyssey van?) and Mercedes M-class are better. I know the Lexus whoops the VX in horsepower and torque, though. The MDX has more horses under the hood too.
