i see what you are saying there, but i'm just looking at it as a city driver. i dont know about you, but i see these things ALL THE TIME. seeing an H1 on the street, people dont use them for hauling heavy equipment and stuff. they use them for the same purpose as lets say a Ford Excursion, Chevy Suburban, etc. compared to those monster SUVs, the H1 is mediocre at best in HP, and not too much more powerful in torque.
i also see horsepower as very important for hauling stuff around, not as important as torque, but still pretty important. i'm just saying that with a huge ass engine that they put in, that eats gas like a mofo, more power could have been squeezed out of it.
