Don't laugh. It used to be a rage in Asia early part of this decade. Large letters.

How about a couple of blow up gangster dolls next to your wife in the RX, that will make it look tough

I added a tow hitch so I can tow stuff and a basket on top to store more things. What's not in the picture is a snowboard carrier attached to the basket. I think these things make it look a little tougher.

Now there is a good idea, carry and tow all that stuff around even when you dont need to just to make a girlie SUV look tougher

"I think these things make it look a little tougher."
No. That just looks like some guy (surely with a "little car") borrowed his girl friend's Lexus to move his stuff.
