Ive seen a few around my area. I dont care for them at all and personally think its a waste of money. I mean honestly, who buys and suv for performance?! If you do, youre an idiot. Granted its a fast suv, handles great, dadadada... but it still cant get around the weight, ride height (cog), etc..



And for like 90k for a turbo, I can think of a few other things to buy.

I'll still take it down



cadillac made a prototype twin turbo 650hp escalade. Thing still weighs like 6000 lbs.. lol

I think it's more the fact that you COULD run 12s, than the fact that you can.



You see what I mean? It's like, it's nice knowing you could at any moment.

I would LOVE to have one try me on the road. So.... You just spent over 100K on your sport ute and you think its fast. Here, let me rock your world. Oops! Looks like you wasted 100K. Its a status symbol and nothing more. If some one is buying it for its "blistering" speed they will be disapointed. They buy it for the status symbol it is.



It would be a hoot to blow one off the road.
