Why they call it a Range Rover, I guess as opposed to a Land-Rover
series 8x. If you think about it, the first Land-Rover was a Land-Rover,
that was the make and model. So in reality, my '66 is a make:Land-Rover,
model:Land-Rover Series IIA. A Range Rover is a make:Land Rover, model:
Range Rover. So a Range Rover is not a Land-Rover, but is a Land Rover,
at least by my thinking.
