Author’s Note
Using tough and sturdy off-roaders for campaign rallies is understandable. One needs the assurance that the vehicle will be able to take on any terrain. Oftentimes, these rallies don’t take place on highways. Politicians have to visit the remote parts of the country. That’s why they often need a separate SUV for such occasions. Generally, for highway rides, they often use some sedan cars. It is great to witness a tough off-roader in an appropriate environment.
