Is This Masculine?

**PanzerJaeger** · 06-28-2005, 04:37

Well my brother is about to roll up on his 16th birthday (the year you can get your full license in most US states), and my father told me to find him a truck.

This one is perfect as far as brand, options, price, ect.- but Im not sure if the coloring is good for a boy. Im horrible at that kind of thing.

So is the white color with the black leather stylish, yet tough enough for him? Would the guys here enjoy getting it?

Thanks for any help.

Hey a car is a car. But yeah its a land rover so thats an automatic plus right there. White is a guy color, now if it was pink, or maybe yellow it might be questionable, but white is good. Overall it looks nice, I woiuldn't mind it. Although I would never give up my black civic.

Your kidding right?
A tricked out Land Rover?

I would consider agreeing to a permanent diet of raw fish for a ride that nice...

I'm sure your brother will like it plenty.

White or silver is the standard colours in Australia... good in the heat.

Can't beat my Black H1 back in the days of yore' aka High School. But hey, it's still a landrover, which are 100 times better than Jeeps. Unfortunately the Caymans don't allow much headway in the area of vehicles so I've resorted to buying off a Dark Red 2004 Jaguar XK from a former employee for 35,000 US.

Get him one in a nice British Racing Green like all British motor cars are meant to be. A true gentleman's colour.

That's, uh, a mighty fine fine truck there brother.

Do you need, umm... another brother? I sure could use a BMW motorcycle.

Its a landrover. Landrovers are mens cars. Its the rule. You can bet the SAS don't worry about whether their landrovers make their bums look big.

**Beirut** · 06-28-2005, 10:29

Yes, but truth be known, most of the SAS do have big bums.

I think it's genetic.

Don't worry about the masculine look of the car - worry about the heft of the wallet needed to keep it running. Those things drink fuel at a rate that makes 18-30 tourists in Ibiza look like slackers.

Still, the spares are quite reasonable, and Landies should be almost unbreakable.

How's your Father going to react when your 16 year old brother requests that he second mortgages the house for gas money?

Btw, I'm a girl and a drive a white car. Jus sayin.

**Ronin** · 06-28-2005, 13:08

as it has been said before...the problem with that car is that it´s a SUV and so a gas-guzler....

don´t see anything wrong with the color tough

Thanks for the help guys, i really appreciate it. I guess i was just paranoid as ive never been in a vehicle with black leather.

My dads paying for it, and he insists that we are a Landy family.. which is fine with me, i love the trucks. They do cost a ton to fill up and get fixed, but off-roading is a hobby for us so thats ok.

Again, thanks!
