Telluride looks great. I wish they made one with like the Stinger awd drivetrain. Kind of would be an awesome budget Trackhawk. But I think that Hyundai GV80 3.5T may kind of be that. Think that motor is a larger displacement version of what's in those Stingers. Which has proven to be a pretty impressive motor for a heavy ass modern car.
But even those Stingers are pretty impressive. I went to the drag strip for test & tune on my street car. There were 2 Stingers that were absolutely destroying all the modern bolt on Hemi challengers/chargers , bolt on GM LS/LT cars, and bolt on SBF, 3 valve, 4 valve , & Coyote Mustangs. Was very impressed.
I think it's different a bit than the gun argument. I would liken more to suing a gun company for a defective gun, while still blaming them for the gun violence. There is merit in the lawsuit for the shitty product but blaming them for the other stuff is railroading.
But following this issue for a few years actually made me cross a Stinger off my daily driver replacement list & the GV80 off my Mom's new SUV list.
Look man, everything you said before the gun part….not a car engine guy. I see a telluride, new bronco, or Range Rover and I get moist.
To tweak the gun argument a bit more, I have thought about it and the most perfect way I can relate the two is to sue gun manufacturers for not including a gun or trigger lock
