THIS is masculine???

[Goinghuntin]

Ok, let's put this out there right away: there's nothing masculine about a crossover. Nothing. But this vehicle is supposed to be for young guys like me? I'll keep my old Jimmy thank you.

There is definitely nothing masculine about that crossover!! That truck on the other hand...doesn't get much more masculine than that!

I can't believe how the import companies can build such ugly and stupid looking crap like that an actually think it's appealing. It's like that Nissan Cube. Who in the heck would ever want to drive something so horridly ugly.

That truck is awesome! One of our customers just bought a victory red 2010 Silverado LTZ crew cab loaded to the nines and put a 6 inch lift on it with nice exhaust. Must be nice to have money.

Ugh! That Nissan is hideus. A few of the crossovers aren't too bad. I would rather drive a crossover over a mini van anyday LOL....accept maybe that Nissan.

The truck on the other hand is sweet.

I posted my comments about the crossover, but I think they were deleted! :bummed:

I never seen or deleted your post John. Unless another admin did or it never went though. Usually someone will PM you if they delete your post though.

I don't think it's ugly, but definitely way to small. If it was bigger, like the size of a Traverse, and had 4 doors I think it would be OK...

That truck is darn nice though!

No biggie Shaun, maybe I hit the back button before I actually posted it. Just a wise crack about that crossover being for "metrosexual" men as they call 'em these days, lol.

That thing's uglier than a mud fence. Looks like the lid off the proverbial can of.................... well...................

Where would you throw a bloody deer in that thing???

[dbHunterNY]

Yeaaa... not much more of a man's set of wheels then a VW bug. I'd rather drive a Smart car..........

the Diablo version I mean.

[Goinghuntin]

Not sure. I think the bloody deer is half the size of the vehicle

Or Dumb cars as I call 'em. Goofy things get 10 mpg less than a Prius or a Jetta TDI but offer you no protection in a crash with anything larger than a groundhog. Can't believe people buy them.

Seriously, I've seen videos where they crash tested them and it's just a little cage with no give. You wouldn't be crushed at all, period, but the shear shock from the impact would kill you alone. That's what worries me about some of these little cars. They will do that or crunch quicker than a tin can.

The modified version of the Smart car called the "Diablo" is just plain stupid. It's got a 1300cc 'Busa sport bike engine in it. They've got video of it smoking a Ferrari 430 in the quarter mile. The combination is just asking to get killed and it's the most ridiculous concept one could think of.

[SVD]

Wow, that is absolutely ugly. It amazes me when I see people driving things like that and often wonder..what where they thinking? :jaw:

Awww! Look at the cute lil' girly car! I'll stick with a truck, thank you very much.

While it does look ghey and unassertive, the design is a bizarre pastiche of different shapes and surfaces which are visually jarring.

Fixed it. BTW - What the heck is "pastiche?" Is that some type of nut?

[Rhino]

I don't know...if you jack that cute vehicle up, put bigger axles, monster truck tires, and paint some flames on it...it would have potential.

Al, after that thought I think you need a very cold glass of water in your face to wake you up.

Yeah. I've seen those videos. How do you think the car would hold up in a head-on with something that was coming at it rather than a stationary object? Or how about a loaded tri-axle coal truck??

I took physics. Steel cage or no..................I ain't getting in one.
