Or, at least, like they <em>used<\/em> <em>to<\/em> here. Most vehicles just show up on the show floor and we snap photos at a fevered pace in an effort to get those pics to you as quickly as possible. The upside for us is that we can rip through posts at a fevered pitch for your enjoyment. The downside is that every once in a while we miss something, and this year we forgot to cover the Dacia Duster, though we did tell you about it in advance. Still, our bad.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/08\/dacia-shows-off-new-production-duster-4x4\/\">Renault&#8217;s Romanian-bred SUV<\/a> is built to be affordable, attractive and capable, with a 30 degree approach and a 36 degree departure for relatively some serious off-roading. The Duster even comes diesel-ready, with a 105 horsepower, 266 pound-feet of torque powerplant that we&#8217;d love to try for ourselves. And if an earlier report from <em>The Wall Street Journal<\/em> is correct, Renault is even pondering <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/10\/wsj-renault-pondering-return-to-north-america\/\">bringing the Duster<\/a> to U.S. shores.<\/p>\n<p>Until that happens, we have to make do with a couple of videos showing off just how capable the Duster is. The first spot shows us how the Dacia handles off-road chores and the second seeks to illustrate that it isn&#8217;t a dud on dry pavement, either. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/10\/videos-dacia-duster-looks-good-in-motion\/#continued\">Hit the jump<\/a> to watch the two videos for yourself.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/dacia-duster-4x4\/low\/\">Dacia Duster 4&#215;4<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/dacia-duster-4x4\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/duster00_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/dacia-duster-4x4\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/duster10_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/dacia-duster-4x4\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/duster20_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/dacia-duster-4x4\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/duster30_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/dacia-duster-4x4\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/duster40_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: Dacia via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9-UQUnl4v70\">YouTube<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/10\/videos-dacia-duster-looks-good-in-motion\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Videos: Dacia Duster looks good in motion<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/10\/videos-dacia-duster-looks-good-in-motion\/\">Videos: Dacia Duster looks good in motion<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 10 Mar 2010 15:29:00 EST.
