Turn key bike that will always run and never give you problems if you take care of it, or a car that will have issues with MD smog, that can get you pulled over for mods, that can blow up at any moment and in the end wont be as fast as your stock bike....

Ive always wanted a Voodoo blue FJ cruiser. Id paint the roof to match though.

But then I realize I live in the city and the only off roading I would is driving down Pratt St. Which isnt all that bad now that they are fixing it up.

Nissan held it down at the SCCA regional yesterday!! A G35 won STX class, Learic Cramer won C-stock in her 370z, and I took BSP. Roberto had a strong showing in the very very competitive STR class as well. 3 out of 4 isn't too bad.

I figured this was a bit random from the norm in here .

Not to be a d!ck, because I wouldn't joke about something like this, but every car can be unstable and flip, even sports cars, under the wrong situation, and/or driver error. Hating XXX car doesn't change anything.

My sister had a close friend make a dumb move in her daddy's Corvette which she couldn't live to regret, my sister blames the car, obviously that's not the case...

very true but the wrangler is more capable of flipping mainly because of its structural design. Especially when the driver feels so great to be zipping around town with thier top down.

I think the problem lies here. Jeeps arent made to go 80mph. They are meant to go over stuff at 5mph. Expecting to be able to do both is impossible. All SUVs are prone to roll over. But yes its easier to flip and die in a in a Jeep when zipping around town with no top.
