We're going to pat ourselves on the back (just in case no one else does) because when you're right, you're right. Just yesterday we discussed the possibility of a longer, lighter more fuel efficient Cayenne. This morning we woke up to a press release from Porsche with a sub-heading of "All-new SUV debuts in Geneva with more room, technology, …

Will You Ever Torture Your Porsche Cayenne Like This!
Probably not! While I don't the know the official numbers, I'd be willing to bet that less than 5% of all road going Cayennes will ever see more than a slightly rough dirt road on the ride to an out of the way soccer field. However, for those few of you who really do want some off-road capability it's nice to see that the new 2011 Porsche Cayenne …

Truth be told, I'm simply not that excited about it. Don't get me wrong, I like the Cayenne. In fact, John has been threatening to replace my Toyota 4Runner with a Cayenne for that past year now …
