"If I want an off-road vehicle, do I just buy a Land Rover?" It usually
comes to quite a lot more than that, depending on what it is you want

The above will work in certain circumstances, but simple testing will
tell you that. What we can't tell is whether you need a Land Rover or
a Bulldozer. :-)
