Actually that's really cool.
I thought you'd bite on that but there you go Respect is due for a man with a sense of humour!
That Excursion is really bad, though, yes?

You can put the Cup car in the trailer, attach the trailer to a Cayenne (don't bother with the 7pin connector), then use the Excursion to tow everything.
44 gallon tank, Powerstroke diesel, 20mpg unloaded, you can drive over a Smart Car and not even notice a bump.
7000lbs of full framed, cold rolled, American steel ..... sorry I'm starting to tear up a bit here

Ironically as we start to find little things wrong with the cayenne my wife is starting to come around.
I think she is liking it now.

I hope she decided to keep the Cayenne. We just got rid of a 2004 Sequoia and a 2004 RX 330. We replaced them with my new 2008 Cayenne S. I absolutely love everything about it. It is light years ahead of both the Sequoia and the Lexus. To think that I almost asked my husband to just let me get a newer Lexus! I am so incredibly glad that he made me test drive the Cayenne S. I was hooked with a single test drive.

My wife tried a Tahoe found it way too big. Got her a Lexus RX 350 and she liked it but it had no towing capability ( well 3000 lbs) and the front seats were hard on my back. No back or thigh support and short from hip to knee. Traded for a Cayenne GTS and we both are happy. Great seats, good power and handling but not any larger outside then her Lexus, it is wider. It easily tows the open trailer with the '83 SC aboard. I also feel much better with her on the road as I know she has real steel around her and the Cayenne is more stable in crosswinds and or heavy trucks passing her. Better fuel mileage would be nice but it is not bad for a vehicle that can do what it does and comfortably.
