Now I just havta like go get this commercial driver's license, then we can like go to the mall! lol!May I ask, do we really need this vehicle? I see enough suburbanite soccer moms having a rough time navigating their H2's around parking lots as it is. The thought of this vehicle just frightens me.

Truly, CXT spells the end of the SUV as we know it!Can the R&D folks at Mack or Peterbilt be far behind?

Wow! What a great car for commuting by myself! LOL I used to follow a guy who drove an H2 (by himself) 45 miles into Madison everyday. How can these people afford gas right now?

Yeah looks like a damn Semi tractor! Do not like it... Stupid Americans focus on large V8 or larger powered SUVs and in the meantime we are losing car market share...

Many, many years ago, I discovered this site: http://poseur.4x4.org/futuresuv.htmlWhat do ya know, the Grand Dominator is finally reaching the market.

Something tells me that they won't be selling it to the general market if they do decide to produce it. I can see it going to general contractors, emergency and rescue, and to citys. The second that I see a soccer mom driving that is the day that I turn in my drivers lisence and ride the bus.

Not sure what the laws are like elsewhere, but around here I'm pretty sure if you've got air brakes, you need a commercial driver's license. So if that's the case elsewhere, I can't see it going to the general public, since the average soccer mom probably doesn't have a CDL. Let's hope she doesn't at least. Otherwise, I'll be on the bus too. lol!

I stated V8 SUVs... and the AUTO Industry, not the people that drive them. I can say this because I work in the auto industry and see it happening. The truth hurts... And BTW my Vette gets 26-27 HWY with the 6-speed and its aerodynamic shape. You do not know much about them because they get great mileage for a sports car and most are not daily drivers like people with V8 SUVs with one driver in them driving to work... Argggg... You may want to re-read it too Rob as you do not seem to understand... See you on the roads!

I have a V-8 SUV (8.1 L) and it does not get driven as a daily driver. My family average mpg is around 24 mpg. You need a vehicle like that to tow a trailer and haul a family! And in a couple years, I probably will drive it as a commuter vehicle.

Also, with leather seating, DVD player and such, I have a feeling we are going to see a couple of these at the soccer field.... They say that they are not marketing this to consumers (more toward contractors, etc.), I have a contractor who lives on my street and he has a Ford Excursion and a Ford F-350 pickup parked in the street. I could most certainly see him getting one of these.http://story.news.yahoo.com/ne...truck

And I thought the pimpcalade (Cadillac's Escalade, around here it is called the pimpcalade) and H2 were bad. We have a ton of them around here and these people can't keep them in their lanes and on the road. Now this, I can see all of these people trading their cars in and getting one of those. And I see the spoiled rich girls and the soccer moms trying to fit them into those small parking spaces and then beating the cr*p out of the side of your car with the doors.Wow, this is an unreal whatever it is.....

(removed)! CXT's really exist!I couldn't FIND a single 'soccer mom' at the 4x4 & Monster Truck Jamboree in Indy last night, so I posed my son who's 13 years old and 5' 8", in front of a stock CXT!
