Cargiver.

What good gay Jewish grandson wouldn't love a sporty SUV that's also comfy enough to drive grandma to dinner for her birthday? That's the story on the five-passenger Pontiac Torrent. I was impressed with the Torrent--essentially the same as the Chevrolet Equinox but with a sportier, more aggressive look. I was even more impressed when my 86-year-old grandma Minnie found the passenger seat of this crossover SUV easier to negotiate than that of a regular car. The Torrent we tested came in front-wheel drive with a 185-horsepower V-6 engine and a five-speed automatic transmission with sport-tuned four-wheel independent suspension. (Full-time four-wheel drive is also available.) Safety features include dual-stage front air bags, daytime running lights, traction control, and the OnStar system. The cargo area can easily be extended by folding down the 60-40 split rear seat with child safety latch system. Gain even more room by flipping the front passenger seat forward (sans grandma, of course). We gay folks do seem to care for others with some frequency. Here's a crossover vehicle for our sporty moments as well as those times when we step up to the caregiving role.
