Truck Trends?

[James Earl]

OK Another $50,000 bus added to our roads. The new Jeep Comander.

I was thinking that the trends are more economy and smaller cars being in. Sports cars coming back into the picture. Hybrids making the bigger stuff move. Guess I was wrong. 5.7 Litre Hemi....sweet.

Is this to compete with the H3 from GM? Ford discontinued the Excursion because it was not selling.

What do you think, will this sell for more than 3 years?

toyota prius is selling 3 times as many as the H3's, chevys been slowly selling less and less of them as slowly the prius makes more and more sales.
looks like another suv that eats gas, can't off road anywhere near as well as a pickup half its price and isn't as safe as many "economy cars"

Jeep say's they are "trail rated" but they set that standard so who knows if they are any good. I have owned a 7 passenger suburban and know the reason you would buy one of these pigs. They are very nice to drive, comfy, powerfull and loaded with toys. For that much cash I'd buy a Range Rover though....Jeep=Chysler=Dalmier=Crapola. Range Rover = I'm better than you. LOL

i'd buy an older suburban with the diesel, put a twin turbo setup on it and laugh all the way down the road with my 500hp. and better mileage.
