HUMMER H3T Concept

The Coolest BIG American Cars On The Road

In the world of motoring, there are fast cars. The super-charged sports models designed for one thing: sheer ferocity. Then there are economical cars. These are designed to sip their fuel slowly and provide safety for the whole family. And then there are the BIG cars. These are the vehicle that are made purely to show off the wonderful feeling of size. If you’ve ever had the privilege of sitting behind the wheel of a big car, you’ll know what we mean. It’s dominating. It’s thrilling. Quite frankly, it’s the best feeling you can get from a car. Over the years, America has churned out the very best BIG cars. Here are our favourites.

HUMMER H3T Concept

Ford Pickup – The Ford pickup truck is an iconic symbol of the American heartland. Built to traverse the dusty, arid mid-west, the original Ford pickup truck was a true workhorse. It was chunky, powerful, and built to survive a nuclear bomb blast (almost). In recent times, it has undergone something of a renovation, but it still harbours the workhorse spirit of the original.

Hummer – When talking about big American cars, the Hummer is probably the first thing that comes to mind. It is obnoxiously big. There’s an arrogance about the Hummer that no other car ever comes close to. Why would you ever need a car of this size? Well, why not? That fierce grill has achieved iconic status, and Hummer have even manufactured a limo version.

GMC Yukon – GMC have long created solid American pickup trucks to rival Ford. We love their classic designs, but it’s their 4×4 model that makes our list today. It’s perhaps the biggest commercial SUV on the market; you certainly see this one coming! Stepping into the cabin feels almost like stepping into the cockpit of a plane. It’s simply enormous in there. The car is chunky, robust, and sturdy. Just how we like it.

Ford Mustang – The Ford Mustang is a legendary car. It really is. That giant nose design has been copied and ripped off every year since its inception. The real reason for this stunning grill design is that the engine simply wouldn’t fit in otherwise. When your engine is so big you have to extend the nose, you’re onto a winner. The Mustang is the original American muscle car. It inspired a generation of others, and fully deserves its place on the list.

Dodge Ram – Back in the world of pickup trucks, the Dodge Ram is stand-out choice. It has the fattest grill of any pickup on the market. It’s not quite as slick as the Ford pickup, but it has the sheer size advantage. Dodge have released a series of fantastic models over the years. You can see the range for yourself at www.crosskeysauto.com/inventory/view/Make/Dodge/Model/Ram%201500/Used/. There’s no better way to cruise down Route 66 than behind the wheel of this giant car.
