Hmm Lets hear your opinions:(SUV content)

[sixsixii]

Let me get this straight... You're a canadian with the American mindset that you need an SUV to satisfy the testosterone to "ball". You see this sort of statement makes me think you're simply fallen prey to the MTV generation. The MTV generation is obsessed with the "ballin" lifestyle. See in a rap video when you're "ballin" you have to be mobbin' at least 4 deep, ( You can mob at least 5 in an SUV) of course when one's crew is larger, it is seen as he has more money because they are all on his payroll.

I quote thee:



They all might not be bodygaurds but they appear to have that tough look in order to scare away other "ballers". The simple larger/more feathers on a peacock stategy, also works to try to select a mate. Of course we all know "ballers" don't really mate in the same way a peacock or penguin mates. They are out the door faster than you can say, "Yo MTV Raps."

Or maybe I'm simply reading into this too far, and you should just ask yourself one question. Do you feel lucky? Do ya? Or do you really need an SUV?



And, yes.

end thread!

I subscribe to this line of reasoning, hence I own a Nissan Xtrail But I'm not really of an MTV generation either...

Get this same as a TBSS but there are way less of these on the road, (at least i dont see as many) and the looks are less in your face!

Saab 9-7x Aero!

I quote thee:

I was told that when you mob, and need to describe the size of your crew, you do not consider yourself in the count. So, unless you are pulling a utility trailer with a few people in the back, a riding lawnmower has zero mobbing capacity. Likewise, a McLaren F1 has the ability to mob two deep.

An E30 can legally mob up to four deep. In order to mob legally, you must supply a DOT approved passenger restraint system for each member of your mob. In an E30, that is three shoulder belts and a lap belt. You may increase the depth of your mob if you buy a touring, but the passengers in the cargo area will not be legally mobbing.

SRT8>SS with that being said awesome>practical.

[Atreus]

get the TBSS.

it scoots pretty good, so i hear....

test drive the TBSS and report back.

[e30e]

Srt8 has the ground clearance of an e30 which is fucking stupid for being in the snow, the trailblazer has indestructible ls2 v8 and has saab suv parts on it so the parts prices shouldnt be too bad.

[bimmer_E30]

Haha.

I drove my parents suv last winter, and it was a blast! ride higher, comfertable, and so quite! also the 4X4/AWD rocks in winter.

Handling sucks

[kway]

GMC Typhoon. That is all.

QFT. The OG hot rod suv; 0-60 in under 5 clicks and turbo FTMFW. SRT 8 looks sick, but has douchebag written all over it.

[JasonC]

the typhoon is a badass suv. but they are old so i'd be concerned about reliability.

i'd go for a srt8.

I'm racist against 4 doors. Eventhough i DD a 4dr SUV. I'd just never buy anything with performance and was a 4dr at the same time.

Edit: but if i had to choose between those two. I'd pick the Trailblazer, then put an STS turbo on it.

[Jon325i]

I dunno - never been a huge fan of the SUV genre, but I know they can have their practical/functional roles too. If it were me, I'd buy on the principle of how much it can...

haul/tow & how "soft-road" capable (not really into 4-wheeling)

Something diesel would be awesome, but we don't have a ton of choices for those (X5, Touareg, etc).

[bimmer_E30]

i gotta say the srt8 doesn't look like a "ur soccer moms" suv at all...it actually looks boss!

[Farbin Kaiber]

^ So much fun to drive. So much more fun modded. A Blazer should not move like that.

[bimmer_E30]

sorry no old cars!

must be new(er) than 2004!

[Midnight Sun]

Both cars suffer from cheap ass feeling interiors. But, I would probably go with the SS if I had to choose.

Otherwise, Tahoe.
