My SO hang glides, and we have 2 training sites, at each end of a pretty
grim dirt road.  A while back, we decided due to the wind direction to swap
from one site to the other.  There were 4 vehicles there, and 3 of us drove
down the dirt road, while the other headed up the road to take the long way
around on paved roads.

The 3 were a Ford Aerostar 4x4, a Scion xB and us in a Subaru Impreza.

The 1 was a Chevy Avalanche.  Lifted.  He eventually turned around and
followed us when he realised how ridonculous he was being :o)
