Frank, you may wish to visit your county libary and look at Consumer's Report annual addition I beleive it is. This is a paper back book and it will give rating from real owners on about every vechile made. I have always found that to be great advice.

YP, I used to only buy Ford and then Dodge. Then Ford fell in love in a certain life style I can not support and I wanted mileage and more dependable than my last Dodge gave me. So went to Japanese auto built in USA. So I have USA built with good standards. I really understand the desire to buy the old USA labels and do so if reasonable. kt

Frank, understand and will throw out one other suggestion, Avalanche (hope it is spelled correctly). My brother has one and really likes it. Per him the mileage is better than pickup and the ride is very decent. I think you can get different set ups some with reasonable towing if desired. I have driven it a few hundred miles on interstate and city and for a Rock it did fine. Believe they offer a lot of the truck type options such as 4 wheel drive on this also. Don't they make a four door Hummer with shortbox? Not sure if they get bigger as the number does of the other way. kt

Frank, there have more than one size Hummer now. I think 3, now do they have the short box style you want in all 3, have no idea. But the smallest Hummer just seeing on the road is at least a Mid size if not smaller SUV. kt

Frank, I know very little about the Hummer. Have a client who drives one and did drive a dually Ford diesel. Probably are correct on pricey and for the biggest one in looks it does truly look like an armored truck. What little bit I have seen the smaller models which has only been on the road they don't seem to appear that way as much.

I think it is Honda that makes what my wife calls "a Hummer wanta be". If it were not for price of gas, my wife would like a Hummer. For that matter she would be happy with any Monester SUV sitting high, feeling safe as you can.

Frank, I have a friend who has the GMC pickup like you began asking about. He does a lot of traveling with his business am sure 99% is paved roads by himself only. I called and asked him: he has 105,500 miles on it, no real problems other than they can not get the front end where the inside of the tires do not wear heavy. Gets 21 to 22 on the road. He said it has plenty of power and speed to receive tickets with. We are mostly a flat to some hill area and he is normally hauling himself and luggage mostly. It is the 5 cyl. kt

Frank, forgive, I live near a resort area and this is Harley time, it will soon be the other type and younger I can do anything males to show up. Telling you that so you will understand...get you a full size four door truck and put a small side car on it for your wife. Ok, I have had my good belly roll. Smile

I understand and appreciate your beliefs and love for this Country. Same for you Joel. Now Joel are you helping Mrs. Clinton across the street for her benefit or Obama's? Smile Smile
