I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

K2k6...4x4s confuse me too. My dad has a Double-cab Mitsubishi 4life pickup, cos he is a builder. I can't understand those who needlessly buy 4x4s and then never take them off-road. The X5 isn't cheap, it costs a similar amount to other SUVs, but the problem lies in the need to tick a whole load of options to get to a decent spec level.
I think the problem lies in self-image. People don't want to get old, so they buy something which makes them look young and dynamic. This is why big estate cars are no longer popular, and why MPV sales seem to be declining. However, a growth sector is the SAV, or Sports Activity Vehicle (all these acronyms confuse me) like that Seat Altea thing and that new Ford, which are basically sporty MPVs.
