A hardtop convertible retro pickup with a 'Vette V8; V10 M5s, S6s n' Rams; even a V8 Kia SUV for one year. The 2000s surely were whacky and wonderful times! 🤘 *Edit* And how could I forget?! The only turbo Miata, the '04-05 MazdaSpeed Miata. For the love of God, I've had one for 15 years!
Most of this stuff was known to stop working and being an expensive pain to repair, my buddy had one with the 5.3 all the electrical from the back seats back was dead
I grew up in a low income rural area when I was in high school rich people moved in and bought the large cheap parcells well one of the people bought one brand new to haul his Garbage cans down the driveway, even then it's was gay pointless and disproportionately awkward, thank you for putting it down sir. 🎉
If you happen across a v8 one, with minimal corrosion, I'd probably be interested! These are getting harder and harder to find, and there weren't even that many to begin with!
@brycmtthw screw GM maybe if their new shit wasn't rusty away on the inspection line and transmission oil missing I would care. But no go outta business take chrysler and ford with you bye bye
@@brycmtthwnot at all. The SSR truck did more damage. The cobalt with is crappy reliability did more damage, not letting g each of the brands do their very best did more damage. The hummer that did tons of damage. The XUV and avalanche trucks kept it relevant.
OMG! Some say the ugliest vehicle ever was the Aztec. Me being one that looooved the original Murano cannot even stand to try to remember how ugly that thing was…
Bought one 2 years ago with the 5.3 V8 could've used that one for parts those tailights cost me $70 a piece at a junkyard in michigan that one looked to be fairly rust free a would've bought the whole thing
It was all power operated like a sunroof. Everything happens with the push of a button. The motors and tracks are worth a fortune! I’m “headhunting” for 3 different customers who need parts for their XUV’s. They are indeed RARE! I would have bought the whole vehicle…
Better yet, I'd love to see Bill from CuriousCars do an XUV. He'd be absolutely chipper with the ability to completely enclose and lock toddlers in the 'bed' of the thing. 🥰
@@AnonYmous-hu7jo Pfft you tryna put dahn Demuro? Sayin' his work is too blasé for ya Bub? Seems he's doing just peachy, considering he recently got an investment group's backing to the tune of $34 million. 🤑
For 2004 and 2005, GMC offered the five-passenger Envoy XUV retractable-roof vehicle. Similar in concept to the 2001 GMC Terracross (a mid-size SUV concept), the Envoy XUV modernized the retractable roof concept of the 1960s Studebaker Wagonaire. didn't you have a Studebaker a couple of months back?
I had an Explorer with a truck bed, and that thing was USELESS to me. I found out way too quick that anything I'd want to carry is gonna hang off the edge of the bed more than I'm comfortable with.
This was only available for two model years. I was forced to drive one in 2005 as a company car. Inline 6, very underpowered, GM junk. I was glad when it went away though my next company car was related to it, Hummer H3, also junk.
I had a huge laugh when some car mag jabbed at GM for their ad. Car & Driver(?) showed an XUV ad that said 'Who else could think of this?' And they posted a Studebaker ad from the 60s. 'Studebaker, 40 years ago.' 🙃
