You took that all wrong. I was absolutely not saying that an LX is like those other vehicles at all. So no worries, we are on the same page that AHC is different and very special. AHC is vastly superior to anything else out there.
However, your comments on me needing to “learn a bit.” I test far more 200 platforms than you ever will. I’ve personally build 72 LC/LXs in the last 19 months and takehalf those customers out for their first runs and teach them how to get the most out of it. That’s not the shop I’m at splitting the work load, that’s me, me doing the work. I get going when typing and said bags, meant to say shocks. AHC doesn’t give me much memorable moments as I can’t do much more than a trim packer. I spend most my time doing other things around the underside of them. Words have meaning, and I could see where you mistook what I said earlier. Apologies for that. But my opinions of their capabilities is from the drivers seat, terrain, and what the thing will do when doing the same thing with another one. How much more do you want? Similar terrain comparisons across multiple different builds, what’s to get butt hurt about?
I respect your analytical background, but you have a very hard time accepting that you only know your small world, your one LX, and whatever YOU do, pshh, that’s the gospel now. That in itself, is very hypocritical of a comparison thread. Don’t like being challenged, don’t start threads that you have limited scope in.
But to say that I don’t like to learn, have you even read anything I’ve posted? Come on man, you are far better than that.
If you think I’m busting your balls, I’m not. But when you want to talk suspension, which means off road stuff, don’t be surprised, that ‘ol Taco over here, who off roads a lot is going to say some stuff. And when you say that a sway bar doesn’t limit articulation... you kinda show your ass, everyone knows a sway bar limits articulation. Damn.
Ever wonder why I don’t post on stereo upgrades, paint care, chrome delete, Apple CarPlay threads? I don’t have enough background because I don’t do those enough. And those who do, will raise an eyebrow. As
@Markuson said, “you can only BS a BSer. You can’t BS someone who knows.”
