lol, putting 300 hp in a TC is definitely not the same as a golf cart. and if you arnt retarded, you wont crash. you dont just slap a turbo on and bam you're done. you upgrade suspension, brakes, etc so it can handle high speeds. TC already come with 200 some hp stock, increasing it to over 300 isnt going to make it any less safe i wouldnt think. anything you drive over 60mph isnt going to be 'safe.' it depends on how you wreck as to whether you live or not...just look at nascar, earnhardt didnt hit the wall going that fast, there are several other people that wreck 10x worse than that and walk away. like i said, the XB or whatever the box thing is, is ugly, but i think the TC looks good and comes with some decent options and isnt that expensive. not to mention, scion is a branch of toyota, so hopefully they share some engine knowledge cause toyota engines are godly smooth...at least my 95 celica was

The original Hummer is actually pretty lame. I've driven one on the dunes and it is kinda a whale - no power and heavy, I did better in a 4 cyl Jeep before. I did end up towing that Hummer off the dunes and 2 hours to his home another weekend. He hydro-locked the engine. There is no interior room and the thing is too big to go many places offroad unless it is a wide open area. Hummer is finally coming out with an Alpha version with the Allison 5-speed auto and the Duramax diesel, that version might be a better vehicle.

The H2 is a 3/4 ton Suburban/Tahoe based vehicle, but heavier.

The H3 is a Colorado / Trailblazer based vehicle.

The H4 is in the works, it is Jeep Liberty sized.

The same thing with the military HUMMV. No balls whatsoever, use to get my stuck all the time.
