The purpose of every vehicle I have bought is to get me to my hunting and fishing spots. From my New 1974 Datsun pickup to the ZR2 I have now. Every vehicle has gotten better in about every way, and yes, more expensive.
But I do take care of them also..
I had just bought my truck an was hoping the toneau cover would arrive before i went elk hunting in Colorado.

I do not "off-road" but drive through pastures, fields and the main thing is wash board roads. In which the ZR2 excels in.

I orded a vehicle, I picked it up on a Friday when the guy was finishing waxing it. I took it goose hunting the next morning after we had several inch of rain, it was covered with mud. not just a little mud either
 
I believe it. I'm okay in a straight line, had a plaid for a weekend and I'd imagine the launch is similar... kind of mind blowing how hard vehicles can launch now. My problem is once I start twisting I'll onset vertigo/motion sickness. So no pushing it for me anymore. Though I do take the Mexico bypass to the boat every time it seems as I get there awfully quick. ;)
I have that issue on twisty roads like 14 from Ft. Collins to Walden.
I mentioned to the wife about my reservations on buying a boat I amy have the same issues, have not had a problem except sea legs for a few hours afterwards..
fyi: I am deaf in one ear since I was 8 and if I do not keep n eye on it pressure builds up during pollen season, and causes some vertigo issues. I can tell when it happens and knowwhat to do..
