Ha! I thought everyone would at it, but Im with you on this one. It wont tow a fifth wheel with a 6' bed. And I have more torque now than that V10. This is kinda like a Specialty truck or something. This wont be the new SD. Its just a concept. Looks cool, sorta?

Looks like a rip off of the GM Terradyne from about 4-5 years ago. Didn't like that one and this one is no difference. Luckily it'll never see the light of day.

How can anything with that much frontal area get decent mileage? The area of the cowling, bumper, grill, and hood must be like 100 sq ft or something. I never thought they could make a concept pickup uglier than the Tonka one.

To go against everyone so far, I like... The interior is and I like the suicide door setup. But the front end would need to be cut down a bit.

Thats not a pick-up..............
Pick-ups are made to WORK, HAUL, and generally get DIRTY.
Can you picture a 9ft. Western Vee on that?
Coarse maybe that would add to the locomotive ambiance.

Looks like something Dodge/Chrysler would make. From the side it kinda looks like one of those 300 cars.
