I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

It's not an SUV...Suzuki makes cars; as does Kawasaki.

no they replaced it with the tacoma in the late 90's and toyota quit funding for the pikes peak hill climb in 2001 iirc

yes but that model itself is an SUV. if you actually read the article you woulda seen it.

""Monster" Tajima was driving a new car, which is based on the 2007 Suzuki XL7, the company's flagship SUV in the United States."

the video with the pavement is footage from the practice runs, the actual course is still all dirt

Yeah yeah my fault, I'm lazy and didn't feel like reading about a Suzuki...and the fact that it's actually referred to as a "flagship" is quite rediculous! Go SUZUKI!
