I guess time will tell.
I agree 100%. Both of these cars have built a hardcore following as well. One specific reason people love the G-Wagon for example is the 'thunk' of the doors.
Remember, SUV's were something like 50% of BMW sales in the USA. Why would they invest in R&D for a model that won't sell? BMW has board members to please.

I'm just yearning for the good old days when kids would have sports car posters on their bedroom wall. Now apparently they have SUVs and buses.
