Just saw the headline, and it says it all.

Think the upper-crust soccer moms will notice they're driving a gussied-up Durango?

lol, the answer to your question is no, no they will not. The fact that the Wagoneer sells at all is a testament to that.

The Wagoneer sells?  That's news to me.  Don't see a single one around here.

Pretty popular around here. Not Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade popular, but still pretty common.

Yeah, the Wagoneer and the Grand Wagoneer is quite popular around these parts as well. Again, not GM Tahoe and friends popular, but still, see them on the regular. To answer the initial post, no, I doubt the chuckleheads driving those things will notice as long as the badge on the grill still says Land Rover.
