I saw this and thought it was pretty funny and I bet our X's even stock would dominate.

What idiot would take an Escalade off roading???? I'm sorry but the most off roading an Escalade should ever see in my book is going over a curb on the way to the club.
And why did they choose the H2? Why didn't they go with the H1, the actual HUMMER???
what ever, I've got a an '05 X S model and I could'ave made it way before the Brit.
LOL

With the right driver, I bet that H2 would beat the LR.

What idiots! The Escalade and H2 would have done much better if there weren't idiots driving. Why would you try to drive up the spot that the Escalade is stuck. How is the H2 stuck?

I agree, obviously geared towards us "retarded americans". I guess he doesnt want to point out that range rover is in the top 5 for worst maintenance records in the whole industry.

got to give those guys a bit of slack....
they are experts in super cars, not suv's.

that show (Top Gear) is awsome! (when it comes to rare exotic super cars)

Let's see... a British show picks an American boulevard cruiser, a Chevy Tahoe with some sheetmetal, and a real off-road vehicle, a British Range Rover (actually owned by Ford, but what the hell).

Nope, no bias here. Nothing labeled Jeep, nothing with real off-road capability (at least with an American name on it).

Because, you know, England (population density 976/sq mi) has all that open country, while the United States (population density 80/sq mi) is nothing but suburbs and shopping malls.

But we really should pick on the Brits... the 20th century was rough on them.

Are they serious... Its kinda funny our OR X's have all the same features of the range rover but its about a quarter of the price. What was the Escalade driver trying to get up there?

we need to keep in mind in the UK they have the ford ka, nissan x-trail, and the mini. there idea of a gas guzzling 4x4 is a audi quattro.



p.s. half of my family live in the UK and they all love offroading when they visit
