Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
It's kinda ugly. I'm not sure I like the big noses on these things, and the cramped cabin. It sits low to the ground, and why are they so heavy? But I like the fold down passenger seat and AC power outlets. The fuel efficient engine and 5spd tranny sound good as long as they are durable.
Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
8.1 inch ground clearance is not too shabby.
You just wait for the 4 Wheel Drive Version.
You'll be all over that.
LOLz Jim
PS Do you think Chevrolet will wake up now?

Are they planning one, or are you hoping?astroturf wrote:4 Wheel Drive Version.
GM doesn't need to wake up. If they go under we'll just bail 'em out again.
Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
It is full framed, just like the Titan.
Given demand they will build it...
4 Wheel Drive. I want one or three.

Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
High top version is ugly, regular top reminds me of old panel trucks.
I wouldn't own either though.

Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
I think its a possibility if they bring out a passenger model.
The other thing that is concerning is airbags are a option. I mean really it's not 1993 anymore just put the bags in and be done with it. I would like to check one out in the flesh though.

Hey Turf. Just get outta jail or somthin? Well wherever you was, welcome back!! Good to see ya around again.Kidhauler wrote:I mean really it's not 1993 anymore just put the bags in and be done with it.
No No No. The airbags should def be optional.
i dont care what year it is, those things are just dangerous.
They keep trying to idiot proof cars, resulting in more and more idiots driving on the roads.
Nowadays you dont even need enough driving skill to park your own car cuz the newest idiotmobiles will just do it for you so you dont need to even try to learn how to operate your vehicle.

Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
I agree that cars are being too idiot-proofed. For example the sensors for parking that set off air-raid sirens when you get too close to another vehicle, ie 5 ft away LOL! Flat tire alarms... But I'm divided on the benefits. On the one hand, it discourages people from learning how to operate and maintain a motor vehicle. On the other hand, it prevents idiots from killing everybody. I think the responsibility should lie in the dept of transport. Driving tests in N.America. are a joke compared to Europe. Most people wouldn't survive one day on their roads. We should be testing people on everything, and not just once when they're 16
Don't even get me started on Vancouver drivers. Some of the stuff you see just boggles the mind.

Re: AstroSafari KILLAZZZ
That air raid siren at 5 feet just scares the hell outta granny, getting her all flustered and likely to hit the wrong peddle and crash right into something or someone!! setting off the airbags and injuring the grandkids!!! Oh, Sorry Mom. (She lives in Burnaby though Timeless, so you got no worries, ha ha ha)

So Jim, Are you getting one of these to slide around in for work?
You'll have to let us know how that works out.
