The 2-door? Or just a GMT400 in general? The 2-doors are hard to come by and I think are going up in value, since they were only available for a few model years. If you want a 2-door GMT400 SUV that will surprise a lot of people, try finding a Canadian example with the 6.5 turbodiesel (wasn’t offered in the US).

LOL beat me to it!

The problem with the Navistar-built diesel V8s Ford used had nothing to do with their build quality. It had to do with the engineering and the tricks used to get the things to pass emissions. What I’ve heard is that the aftermarket has since come up with fixes for the inherent engineering issues in those two engines,

Um, don’t look now, but the new-gen Tacoma uses a composite bed. Can it sustain a 500 lb gravel drop from 3-5 feet in sub-zero weather? No idea, but at the very least the Tacoma has the payload capacity to be able to test your scenario up to about 1500 lbs.

I get what the OP is saying, but in reality, this will probably not bite GM very hard at all.

Less attractive than the last one, probably because it isn’t as muscular.

Texas also has 5 times more people than Finland, and isn’t part of the Arctic circle.

Automagic NP; no need to even think about it after seeing the pics.

Attempted vehicular accident? More like murder. Murder is with intent, manslaughter is not.

Could be any number of valid or unsavory reasons. I see private car-for-sale ads all the time where someone says “X family member died, must sell” or “moving across country, must sell”. Those are valid reasons IMO. It’s also common in my experience for people to put money into a car before they sell it, so that they

Dude, chill the F out. So people were born after you. Big freakin’ deal.

For anyone trying to keep score, it’s pretty much a tie across the board, regardless of car. Plenty of Camaro, Stang, and Vette crash vide on YT, but there’s also a slew of ones where people wreck Porsches, Ferraris, Lambos, you name it. I watched one full of Viper crashes last night.

I generally like the style, though those rear light housings are a bit too 1950s retro Americana for me. And if you didn’t know what this car was called and only glanced at the rear end, you’d swear it was a Ferrari.

My vote for V12 sound goes to the Enzo/FXX. Screamiest V12 I’ve ever heard, though a Tubi’d Countach is pretty close.

V6s just sound like less robust V12s. You can hear the character of a V6 in most V12s, and vice versa, just like you can hear the character of a V10 in a straight-5, or how racing straight-4s sound like less robust Ferrari V8s. The main, difference to my ears, comes down to displacement, and the extra 6 cylinders

Interesting how the Kwid appears to handle the test the poorest, but was not the lowest scoring vehicle overall. I agree with others: one would think it very difficult for a global make to engineer a car this bad in 2016, but clearly it’s possible.

That looks like an offset crash test, though. Were they doing those frequently 15 years ago? Did the federal regs call for it?

So just find an early 90s Sentra and you’ve got it.

You can seriously tow a factory, legally rated 6,000 lbs with one of these?! That was probably the maximum a C/K1500 would tow at the time. Makes some amount of sense since the V8 was at least as powerful as what was in the trucks, but a full-size wagon that can tow 6,000 lbs might as well be a covered pickup...or a
