me either, tokyo.
Sure, it sounds sweet, but US car makers should concentrate on building a better car, not just squeezing more powerful muscle car engines into just anything with four wheels.
SUVs and trucks - they are great and all, but honestly - the suspension design is not built right and there should be serious limitations in the driver compatibility with these things as more and more soccer moms get them.
US car makers should look towards the Germans, how they design their bumper height for one thing. Right now, our car would be run over by this truck or any US designed SUV.
What do we have to blame for this? Money, and money driving productions of these by the US car manufacturers and the US car manufacterers lobbying against any kind of regulations because the sales and marketing departments make claims that this is what the US population wants to see.
/end rant.
