As cool as these things are, I really am going to worry once they are more popular and in hands of less skilled drivers. Imagine this 9,000lbs behemoth T-boning your small car after the driver couldn't handle the acceleration.

@@richardnavratil9661 You came here just to share this again? This same theory can be applied to anything that weighs 3+ tons and has an accelerator whether it’s a battery powered electric vehicle or ICE product full of flammable gasoline. Furthermore, less skilled drivers are already on the roads - some of which are in Tesla Model X Plaids that _don’t_ have 106 mph limiters. Hummer with all its safety tech is the least of your worries. Please HANG IT UP already sir.

still a shit GM product

This Was Long Overdue!

@@thatcarguy6 I can smell another bailout

🤣🤣

I might be getting ahead of myself, but could this GM Hummer EV very well be the BEST car ever designed in all automotive history???

Nice try GM

Yea I’m tired of EVs looking like jelly beans

Fair enough

Lots of unskilled drivers with disposable money

Great points. Scary indeed.

To that commenter that chickened out and deleted a comment they left on two of my posts, one of them saying: "This same logic can be applied to anything that weighs over 2 tons with a accelerator whether electric or full of flammable gasoline. Please HNAGBITBUP already." (yes, word for word, I assume they meant "hang it up"). My response is yes, there are dump trucks and other trucks of larger weights, but those require a CDL. I.e. a specialized license that goes beyond regular driver's ed. If you can't see the difference between that and something a freshly licensed driver at 16-17 can pick up and drive off the lot immediately versus someone that just gone through CDL schooling, then there's no explaining this to you.

@@richardnavratil9661 *ANY* automobile is SCARY in the hands of unskilled drivers, but you already knew that. Lol.🤦🏽‍♂️🙄

@DOGS LOL Yes it’s all the same. Your body won’t know the differences between being t-boned by 9,000 lbs and t- boned by just 6,000 lbs. Sorry if you actually thought otherwise. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Yes...Tesla, take notice.

An EV guzzler tax

😆🤦🏿‍♂️

LMAO...

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

They need to put a huge guzzler tax on this. This vehicle is retarded with today's supply shortage and and the move to green energy this is nothing close and GM deserves to go out of business because of this.

This is far from that, rolls royce and BMW are actual "rich d-bag" vehicles, this is actually worth the money.

He's probably ridden bigger.

Newsflash. The cyber truck has been dropped.

Exactly. Starbucks in one hand, phone in the other hand. 9000 lbs truck on SuperCruise runs over a Prius. “My truck was driving itself”

@@garrettw99 Uhh SuperCruise ain’t the system that’s plowing into other vehicles on the highway. This ain’t Tesla.

@@mybro727 my point wasn’t that SuperCruise was the problem. It’s the stupid drivers that think “semi-autonomous” driving aid means the car won’t make any mistakes or glitch.

@@garrettw99 That’s exactly what it means. If you’re expecting your semi autonomous driving system to make mistakes and glitches then you’re probably not going to use it very much and then I’d pose the question what’s even the point in paying thousands for a feature you’re too afraid to use anyway? That doesn’t make any sense to me.

@@mybro727 if you’re saying a semi-autonomous system doesn’t make mistakes, why do you think every system is called SEMI-autonomous. You’re acting like one of those people that reads a book in their Tesla or falls asleep on Autopilot with an orange wedged between the steering wheel. None of them are fool-proof

That’s why there’s a slight raise towards the middle of the floorboard for water flow _out_ of the vehicle.

Ya people are actually going to spray out the interior of their 100k+ truck .... Sure....

...on a 350 kW DCFC. I don't think those are all that common yet.

@@MLHunt they are indeed few and far in between.

9k, That's stupid..

Exactly there is no tax credit on this car

That is correct. Thanks for clarifying. It’s been so long since we reviewed another GM full EV and we had it stuck in our minds that only the Bolt doesn’t qualify anymore.

@@theredline They should pay $7,500 into the highway repair fund for the damage that this thing is going to cause.

@@mitchellbarnow1709 Agreed. A lot of these ev owners conviently ignore that taxes that go to pay for road upkeep come from gas purchases. If they're going to buy these heavy, AWD, fast zero to sixty cars (all of which will cause accelerated wear and tear on the roads), they should pay their damn share of road upkeep.

@@user-gm4kv2my4u A new taxation system based on miles driven times the weight of the vehicle needs to be developed.

At least a Raptor can refuel in a few minutes and one can bring Jerry cans on a Raptor. I wouldn’t be jealous or envious.

@@brianwinkler8183 Sure you wouldn’t, _that_ must be why you took the time to respond to Kyle, right?. Lol. This Hummer EV will recharge within a matter of minutes too, and has built in Google software/maps to get you to the nearest fast charger which will cost you less money than refueling that 36 gallon tank at $5 per gallon in the Ford - so what’s your point? The Raptor is far less appealing to look at, far less appealing to sit inside of, the Ford is slower, smaller, less powerful, and has far less capability regardless of which mode you’re in or what kinda terrain you’re on.

@@mybro727 where are those fast charge stations where you’re using all that power and capability???? Also, it takes at least 45 minutes to get enough range to be worthwhile. You conveniently forget there’s little to no infrastructure outside of cities. I’m not envious of anything that impractical…no good reason to be. It’s a pig that’ll need $30k worth to replace the battery pack when they need replacement.

@@brianwinkler8183 Why would the entire battery pack need replacement when GM has designed a pack with individual interchangeable modules specifically so that they can be replaced individually if need be which was literally covered in the review? Define “worthwhile”. Where are you getting 45 mins from? Again, not on a DCFC it doesn’t take anywhere near an hour to get a decent charge. You’re making things up. Perhaps you’re unaware of the sheer size of this battery pack. It’s going to take a bit more time to charge it vs. If you were at the pump draining your wallet for a beast of this scale. You kind of understand that walking into the dealership. This is clearly not the trim level for the most practical & efficient Hummer EV money can buy - it’s literally the fully loaded top of the line *Edition 1.* It’s essentially the same as buying a Cadillac Escalade V and complaining about the fuel economy and practicality for the price point - not exactly the point of that particular trim level. Practicality and efficiency aren’t usually the priorities for any range topping fully loaded trim model of any vehicle, they _are_ expensive, full of innovative bells & never before seen whistles. Lastly, there are *many* people including myself, who live around, nearby, and even _inside_ of cities. Believe it or not, not everyone lives deep in the woods. If you do you still have the option of driving into that city where you purchase your new cars as you have over 300+ miles of range on a full charge. No real limits there if you re-check the fast charger infrastructure again. I won’t list the fast charger stations and their addresses across the U.S. and Canada off the top of my head, but I’m sure the Google assistant has time and wouldn’t mind assisting - that’s what _it’s_ for.

@@mybro727 what a blathering soliloquy…anyways, having “bro” in your KZfaq handle is appropriate, considering who will be fans of this deliberate excess, your logic trying to justify the price is laughable. Cost should include capabilities and practicality, especially for the size. You’re making excuses, and no I’m not making things up about charge time, or the cost of battery replacement. Should it matter if it’s replaced as a whole or cumulatively? No, because it more than offsets any perceived savings vs ICE. Nice try. Enjoy your bro vehicle where you are either confined to the fringes of the city or have to plan carefully.

Does no one see the irony in this? They made a conscious choice to make the thing inefficient and have less towing ability. You have to TRY to be this bad at making a vehicle in 2022.

@@JackHumphrey well evs are for gay people

@@JackHumphrey it's okay, its a toy. people will still buy it.

@@kennethlasseter9264 You would also have to be one of the few confused individuals on the planet to look at this machine and think “that’s a badly made vehicle”. Apparently, efficiency is the 1 and ONLY thing you concern yourself with in a brand new automobile. That ain’t everybody. 🤡

@@mybro727 Not "confused" and I don't think it's badly made: never said that. In fact, it's quite an amazing vehicle. Just can't see actually using it as an actual truck or off-road vehicle the way they are touting it. But, like I said, people are going to buy it for whatever purpose they may have for something so excessive as this and good for them.

Did you know it’s called a warranty 😂😂

@@CarlosPerez-mp2rk ummm yeah, try that after 10 years, which is around the end of average battery life. $20-30k is what’s estimated. Laugh emoji at that.

@@brianwinkler8183 You’re complaint is the 10+ year ownership costs? 😂How much do you think a Cybertruck’s battery replacement is going to cost ya? I’m not sure if they even use the same method as GM with interchangeable modules that can be replaced if need be instead of replacing the pack.

@DOGS LOL exactly 😂😂😂

Hilarious that you think it makes sense telling someone else what is useful and sustainable for them, their families and their lives. 👀

@@mybro727 I'm obviously referring to the hotbutton politicized subject of environmental sustainability. I don't give a fuck about what's sustainable for your family lol.

Warranty

@@punksjutgbd blow a shock out after 3/36 tell me how much it cost genuis

@@cbruno12180 You're talking after any warranty. Real obvious. First owners of luxury vehicles don't keep them past warranty periods. They just move onto to the next new thing. I can see plebes financing this for 84 months though. Even then you're smart to get an extended warranty. Surprised this isn't common knowledge.
