If it is the same as captiva, then it's much cheaper. Captivas don't get a good write up for what they cost.

I dont see any reason to drive a huge bulky vehicle in city traffic.. if travel is betwen cities  and you want to carry several persons with quite amount of luggage ,omega fits the job perfectly..

its been long time I'm watching accident videos and I have come to the conclusion that those bulky devices are slower and cant manouvre quickly to avoid an accident plus they provide you safety only against a bicycle or small cars..  and they have no luck against big vehicles and no chance to escape either.. imo they are useful for a farmer who lives n a muddy , snowy area..  but still this height factor makes them unsafe for fast curves..


 in case I need a 4x4 I would prefer small crossovers ..

 but despite these facts rich people prefer them especially the very expensive models just for show >:(

one of my friends despite my objections go buy one of the biggest models finishing all the money in bank and also using some credit..

and the person is a female doctor ,  answering me that I need safety and I have 0parking place in hospital..


result : she was transferred to another hospital and now no parking place and she is crunching every vehicle on the way ;D

ps: and husband have no car and uses bus to travel home and job ::)
