@@landonbenford8369 well the humvee was intended for military operations and the design had more to do with tactical operations. Then some person thought it would make a good civilian truck. The humvee was too small for the military and too large for the civilian side. The fix was the H2 and it became very impractical for the average person for the size it was. It took all inspiration from the orginal H1 and that includes the tactical side that ain't a worry for the military. It had the aerodynamics of a box and the humvee would never see 70mph and the military dosen't care how much fuel they burn. The H2 was one of the worst trucks to get mpg out of. I have been inside of a H2 and the interior felt very cheap. The outside felt okay. Hummer actually got right around the end though with the H3. Was built on the Colorado platform and was more close to a average SUV. Was more built to compete with the likes of a FJ cruiser. Sadly this around the 08 crash and that brand didn't sell enough to bail out.

SRX V would have been sick. I've owned a 2020 Ford Explorer ST for about a year and a half, and I love it so much. Twin turbo 3L v6 making 400 hp and 10 speed auto transmission, that are also in the Lincoln Aviator. The awd system is built on a rwd platform with most of the drive modes (slippery being an exception, because power to all 4 wheels is important in those conditions), so power to the rear wheels take priority, and its super easy to get oversteer, if i want it. So comfortable too! They didnt go too crazy with stiffening the suspension, and 20 inch wheels instead of 21 or 22 give a little more tire sidewall to soak up the god awful bumps where Ilive. The lane keeping system and the radar system to follow behind the car in front of it while in cruise control are super good. If you didn't have to keep a hand on the wheel, it would almost be like Tesla's self driving. The b&o top tier stereo is really nice, despite hearing that ford bought the rights to use the name, so the extent of their involvement is questionable. Microsoft Sync 3 is fantastic, imo. I've always been the person with a digital music library over a terabyte, instead of streaming everything. The only external I have in use has like 12k songs on it, and you can use voice commands to play an artist, album or song. Would be great if we could be trusted enough to also play video on the main infotainment screen. Maybe someday, someone will make a custom OS of sorts, that will allow more freedom.

I almost bought a black crossfire SRT6 in my early 20s. Living in chicago, having the bulky coats I was too cramped. would have been a great summer car. Also checked out the saturn sky ruby red edition red line that year. oh memories.

Actually prior to the 1999 model years suburban did have the diesel option. Although it was a gutless wonder it boasted high fuel efficiency

Someone explain to me how with all the advancements in safety and fuel economy why can't America go back to building REAL FULL SIZE cars like the size of my late Uncle's 1977 Ford Thunderbird?!?!?😮

No SSR It was absolutely gorgeous truck. From 2003-2006 nothing else looked as radical as the SSR. Two seat convertible pickup truck with retro styling. The SSR was very cool
