    Yeah, but you also do that one camping trip where you have to drive on a gravel road for like 400 meters (over 1000 foot, can you imagine!?) once every 3 years, so that makes it totally ok buy a literal tank on wheels.

      People wildly underestimate how good modern cars car be. While driving across country in my gfs accord we ended up on a gravel mountain road for several miles. It was so much damn fun, but she was anxious the whole time saying how it wasn’t designed for it.

      It was a wide, maintained road. We could easily go 35 to 40 mph. It would have for 4 or 5 cars side by side and the whole time we were on it we saw only like 6.
