With that attitude he can dismiss just about every 4x4 created. And with that
attitude it isn't worth arguing. I've taken my syncro on roads that jeeps
don't travel in the George Washington and Mononghela National Forests  where
the use of Low gear was all you could use (1st gear was too fast/dangerous).
A hummer wouldn't have made it, because the road was too narrow. And frankly,
since I love my syncro and its capabilities, there is no reason to convince a
non-believer.
