Had I been driving another other car like I do on my Safari, it would have had some major issues by now.
... is so horribly cliched its not funny. Most safari owners (just taking your quote as an example) claim the same. However, while it may be driven rougher than a hatchback (I have done the same on my swift including doing inclines like Jalori 4up fully loaded, or the 30km of no road for parashar) - the correct measure is to compare whether in this (hypothetically unbelievably rough use) type of usage, would a Scorpio or a Tavera have crumbled.

I can give everyone the answer: NO!

There are enough sumos, taveras and scorpios which do the leh route happily.

Safari is awesome, but the quote in bold is more perception than reality!
