Doug is like 6 4
because americans are fatsos
That seems unlikely since the Escalade is 74" (6'2") tall.
no, doug is actually pretty tall.
most Americans buy mid-sized cars (Fusion, Malibu, I guess the Charger can go here too)
the big shit is either for fat people or people who need to show off and don't care about fast
If they could every single European would drive a suburban.
>everyone would drive a shitbox
why tho?
some cities and villages have turns that would be impossible for the Suburban platform to navigate. I feel like 4WS would help a lot for Europe, but it would add a shit ton to the price
>shitbox
>Henneshit
enjoy your missing parts
also, can't turn
>cant turn
kek
This guy must be a fucking manlet, the hood is higher than his waistline.
Escalade is very popular among the elite
Also used as a livery car
It's a status symbol, like a G wagon or a Rover
Post a GM vehicle capable of lapping the ring faster than this
Except it can tow the moon and hauls 7 people, their luggage, their parents luggage, and their grandparents' coffins all at once.
Not that anybody ever does that.. But fuck it, America (generally) has the space and the fuel economy isn't THAT much worse than a comparable European SUV. They've had Hybrid Suburbans for a long time now, too.
Also, I'll get the anal explosions of euros who've never been in one for this but: I think they're far more comfortable than land rovers and most Mercedes, especially MB SUVs like the G. It's basically the Lincoln Town Car of SUV's, huge and floaty and about the comfiest thing you can physically roll down a road.
Doug is like 5'5". Why do you think his first attention whore car was a H1 and failed to impress a girl with a Viper?
this...
I've been to 4 EU countries, typically for over 3 weeks and rented EU SUV's/cars
I really don't understand what happens when you gotta move, or tow a boat, or pull a trailer, or dont feel like taking 4 shitboxes to dinner or movies instead of just a suburban. Parts are so fucking cheap, its so easy to work on, its comfortable, it can do the occasional towing.
Most people I know who own a suburban also own a shitbox or a project car...
Because you're not going to pull your boat with a 3-series, are you?
Used to work in fast food. So many soccer moms drove these fuckhuge SUV's. Always by themselves through the drive through. Letting the engine idle and waste gas just so they can get muh diet coke.
>I really don't understand what happens when you gotta
>move
This happens once every five years tops and you can rent a van for a pittance.
>or tow a boat
no one does this, Britain is so small you can just keep your boat at where-ever you use it.
>or pull a trailer
The kind of people who pull trailers are the same kind of people who are more than happy to do 20 under the speed limit, they really don't give a shit about hauling power.
Over here fuel is expensive as shit and people get irrational about conserving it, people will get rid of old 'gas guzzlers' (more than likely a 150bhp 2.0 4cyl saloon car) and get some shit 1.0 hatchback just to save fuel. In fact, just yesterday I was talking to some guy who said his gf made him get rid of his B7 RS4 so they could get a cheap hatchback to save fuel.
Only rich people can afford to daily drive big engined cars, it's why the fastest cars on our motorways are Range Rovers. They can afford to pay the speeding fines, buy it in the first place and run it at 15mpg.
Us Euro's should bow down to our American overlords and their vee ate's.
The average American penis size is about 5 inches.
In Europe, it's six inches.
The average height in the US is also significantly shorter than in Europe.
They're just insecure.
top of his head is actually a bit taller than the roof
>Doug
>Manlet
Choose one, cunt
He reviewed one of my friends cars and I can confirm that Doug is very tall. 6'3 at least.
Umm, what the fuck are you talking about?
What is that image even trying to prove you dumb dougposter?
It's a luxury SUV. Why wouldn't it be big?
Why does he dress like a poorfag
Met Doug Dememeo in person, can confirm he's pretty tall.
is this better
>I help friends or family move often
>there are plenty of occasions when I would need to move a boat or other vehicle to work on them
I have a small 14" tandom-axle trailer at my house that I use at least once a month for random shit. Getting a few yards of dirt to do some yard work, moving ATV or motorcycle, maybe if something like a fridge is too large to fit into the back of the suburban. I'ts just a very useful and utilitarian vehicle, that is comfy and easy to work on. Friend owns a bookstore, and sometimes help pick up books. Where I am, gas prices hardly negate the many beneficial aspects of owning a truck or suburban.
OP asking WHY americunts have these. This is why....I'm not even arguing that this is better, if I lived in the EU i probably wouldn't want one, I'm just explaining why.
Nice, so Doug is as tall as the mirror on an Escalade, he must be 5'6" max.
Holy shit manlets btfo, why does Doug even pretend to be tall? Come to think of it I've never seen him stood next to another person in any of his videos, he must be super embarrassed about his height.
...
Why is he standing on a box in this shot?
...
He is either standing on something or loaded the trunk full of bricks, pathetic and desperate manlet.
he becomes taller by the minute
Doug DeLadder
>not one person has noticed he's standing off the front right of the thing, making him look smaller (comparatively)
it's OK Doug, we know you stood on a milk crate
your secret is safe with us
I can't disprove you so fuck it maybe he is a manlet
I met Doug at a meet once and can confirm there's no fucking way he's even close to 6ft tall, I don't know where people are pulling that statistic from but it's bullshit. You can just look at these pictures proportionally and see that in the half-body shots if you imagine his legs in the space below it's impossible he's that tall.
Americans have no sense of taste so they just make everything big as a cover up
then idiots buy them to feel safe because America is full of pussies
he's mentioned in videos that he's above 6 foot
kill yourself commie
USA is number 1 baby
Doesn't make it true.
yeah I'm not saying he's 6' 4", I'm saying that's what he has said
>Doug DeLadder
ive seen these kind of cars here, they are legal atleast here in spain, ive seen a dodge Ram and an escalade, booth driven by retarded seeming guys
>I really don't understand what happens when you gotta move
Hire a large truck that can fit all of your shit at once, costs next to nothing and comes with people to haul your shit if you like.
>tow a boat
Boats are not that heavy, you know? Most cars can tow a boat
>pull a trailer
Like a mobile home? Hardly anyone does that here. People stay at hotels or pop a tent. But I've seen that once or twice on the road, towed by a normal car.
>taking 4 shitboxes to dinner or movies
This suburban can legally take 20 people? Ok, that's impressive.
not in car design or cars in general
Dougposting is a thing now?
see youre expecting rationality from American mentality
we arent a rational people
US boats are bigger than euroboats
t. Brit that grew up in the US
Dougposting has always been a thing
Quadrasteer was offered on burbs in the 2000s
>tow the moon
they have around 500-600 nm torque
thats not exactly extraterrestrial if you account for the vehicles weight
>Most cars can tow a boat
Indeed they do
Towed one with a shitty 1.0L 90s hyundai once, but what americans say when their vehicles can town a boat, is not the ability to tow a large mass, but the ability to tow a large mass and not suffer a large cruise speed reduction because of the extra mass being towed
When they say, "ya need a big vee ate 2 tow dat" is that for them, to be able to cruise at 60 like your car was not loaded when you are towing a boat, you need a larger engine, and you kinda do, but most people out of america dont care to be able to cruise/accelerate up to 100km/h when towing because they know that they shouldnt do that with their econobox on their tiny roads while towing a fucking boat
if there were any demand they'd be exported
there's a reason no one except americans drives american cars
How much does a boat weigh anyway?
Opposing grains on the assembled pieces of a table to show that some video was faked. I don't remember the specifics but it worked then.
doesnt matter
you need a heavy duty turbo diesel pick up to haul a dirt bike let alone a boat
Do you like my art?
very inspiring
...
>If they could every single European would drive a suburban.
Completely unpractical on narrow, historical roads.
America is a big country full of big people and most of our roads were built after the car was invented, so...lots of space.
Why do people need to have this shit explained to them so often? Do they not travel?
southern cuisine is worth the clotted arteries and diabetes
more recent map
we crossed 40%
would like to see a correlation with sales of fuckhueg cars
>Why do American cars have to be so stupidly fucking big?
because Mormons need to haul their 3 wives, and 8 children around
Are you THE Drakeposter?
>import a shitload of fat do-nothings from Mexico
>add that the the existing number of black women who seem genetically disposed to having titanic asses
>suddenly we have an obesity problem
There are many of us. Don't think of Drakeposting as a person, think of it as an idea.
I'm not the OG, I'm merely an apprentice in this art.

"I have multiple waifus" ass nigga
wise choice
>charger
>midsize
Usually over 4000lbs dry excluding the trailer. There's no fucking way your getting that over a mountain range let alone up the boat launch with a fucking 1 liter. Europeans are fucking delusional when it comes to towing.
>shitbox
4u
Interesting.
I've used a 1.4 DSG Golf to tow a diesel+quattro Audi A4 before, they weigh about 1800kg with a driver. It towed it no problem, but I didn't tow it very far.
I think any 3.0 diesel eurobox, like a 330d or some shit, would probably tow a boat fine, they make like 400ft/lbs.
>I've used a 1.4 DSG Golf to tow a diesel+quattro Audi A4 before
Okay? A human can tow over 400 000lbs... There's more to towing than getting a load going. You also have to be able to safely control the load which you can't do with a 3000lb fwd car. We also have hills, mountains and the average vehicle has over 300hp. Taking 5 minutes to hit the speed limit won't cut it here.
It boggles my mind why the autistic safety cucknation that is Europe does stupid shit like this on a regular basis. Use the right tool for the job people.
>You also have to be able to safely control the load which you can't do with a 3000lb fwd car.
That's what trailer brakes are for, you mouth breathing retard.
I'm just saying the demands for Pooroupe are different, over here people are happy to rag the fuck out of a shitbox to tow their crap around at half the speed limit.
Sauce?

Notice how the bottom of his feet never enter the frame. He's stood on a pallet.
Is Doug our guy?
Yes
To be fair his videos are more interesting than the usual 'hurr the steering is direct the power comes on linearly man the engine sounds good ok guys bye' style of review. As much as people joke about his 'now onto the quirks' style of reviewing, it's important because for car enthusiasts it's why you fall in love with a car.
No Doug, stop posting these threads.
