    Seems like they're both the 22'' but one is dark and one is silver.

    X looks massive and 3 looks tiny. Definitely some weird angle perspective distortion going on. The back wheel on the 3 looks much smaller than the front one and we know that is not true.

    Telephoto from a significant distance with high zoom. All perspective goes away, so even though the X is further away, it's proportionally a meaningless increase in distance and so the ratio of heights doesn't change. From closer up, we're used to seeing further vehicles look smaller, so that makes the X look larger in the picture.

    That's awesome! I kind of got sick of hearing "Oh, it looks just like the X from behind." Scale makes a big difference.

    Better to have it there if the car gets into trouble than to put it there in the cold.
