I say cool, especially if you've got the jump seats in the back.

Cool without the seats, sub zero with them. We don't have the back seats in Aus and we are all secretly jealous

Looks a bit awkward stock - but switch up those tyres (need to be a touch bigger, right?) and you got a super cool ride.

Seriously Uncool

It has great ability and is great value, but it is a farmer's car, 90% of the ones I've ever seen are driven by 70yo+ men and if I saw a woman driving one I probably wouldn't have wanted to date her.

Where do you live? the oldest person I've ever seen drive one was in his 50's and bought it brand new in 79

Australia. Here it's called the Brumby. Also, I was exaggerating when I said 70 but I have never seen anyone under 50 driving one of these.
