| On the other hand, I would be very happy with Car 2 with its deployable tow bar. My experience over 3 years of regular use is good with no problems at all with its operation. |

| I did not refer to front fog lights. Front fog lights were an option on my Vogue. My point is that if you want the rear fogs on in foggy but daylight conditions you have to put the lights onto manua ... |
