That's a lie gzes My friends dad has a 2011 RR SC and it did terrible in the snow.
Completely submerge is that a joke? No car can completely submerge.

I won't get into the argument of which is better. But a lot of Rovers around here are used as mall crawlers and commuter cars (status symbols) and as such have road/performance tires. I'm not surprised it didn't handle well in the snow. Tires make all the difference

That is very true. Most tires offered by brands from the manufacturer will not shine in the snow.

A client of mine had a supercharged RR. Said he would be lucky if he made it to 100K.

I agree they are great off road, but how many do you see set up that way????

I saw that. The H2 could of done better they were just trying to prove a point because they like RR. And the escalade is AWD not a real 4x4 like H2 and RR.
