People who love the Hummer H2 probably love its bold, impressive, muscular looks. Apparently, cops love the H2 as well. The Hummer H2 has a massive truck frame and has a wider-than-average track firm that may offer stability against overturning. Hummer H2

Andrew – They could simply move the Cadillac/Chev V8 engine building equipment to Holden Engine Company or bring back the old Holden 5.0 Litre V8.. Sure its not as powerful as the 6.2 LS3 but get WRS or CAPA to bolt on a supercharger and voila..

Yet with engine technology and development etc being what it is today no one really needs a V8 particularly when Fords Turbo 6 produces over 300Kw and the Twin-Turbo V6 to be in the New Torana [Commodore] expected to make 300-320Kw….
I mean Osmans managed to extract over 400Kw out of a WRX

JasonP I do believe that Holden and Opel are two companies that GM should keep.. Holden because of their experience in building RWD cars and likewise with Opel for their history with FWD cars.. as for AWD they could use the same system under the new Insignia

Salesman,

Embrace The General.

Come on in, the waters’ fine.

You know you want to….

Still funny how The Hummer we get here, is smaller than a Landcrusier, uses less fuel, & well, isn’t exactly the sameas almost every largish 4WD on the road.

Surely there’s room for individuality?

Does everyone have to buy whitegoods? (toyotas)

How appropriate that they have a road closed sign next to the car in the picture

Maybe the Victorian police force should buy them all?
