Cars are much larger for a myriad of complex reasons, two of the major factors are safety features (airbags, side airbags, crumple zones, etc) that require larger and larger vehicles to accommodate. Modern 911 suffer this bloat mostly due to these federally mandated safety regulations.
The second major reason is fuel mileage standards. Regularly are severe on cars, and much more lenient on “light trucks” and SUVs, so in effect the government has subsidized these behemoths because they do not need to abide by the car standards.Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

WeberWho said:I haven't seen these new electric Hummers until a week or so ago. I've seen 4-5 now in the last week. I can't believe how big it was. I don't know if he lifted his or the others maybe didn't have their lift up. I'm guessing they might be on airbags?

I guess I don’t understand why people hate on each other based on what they drive. Dudes got a lifted electric hummer, he’s saving the environment and having fun with it.South of Columbus, Ohio.
