My God!

That thing looks like somebody went postal w/an ugly stick. It will be able to beat the Lightnings, for no other reason than they'll be scared to have it behind them. I've seen prettier baboons....ugh!

What's wrong with it?

That's EXACTLY how I used to draw them in Junior High!

 

Retro looks, like the dodge power wagon concept. front reminds me of my 52 chev pickup.

 

looks like someone tried to cross a vw bug with a toyota pickup

 

Looks likes its been channeled a couple a times!

 

WOH! What were they thinking when they did that? Actually i would want to beat it so i would not have to see it!!!

 

There's always got to be a least one dissenter. I love it! Of course you have to understand that had I not been able to score my L, my next choice was going to be an Audi TT. I love that aero looking stuff, and that front end just reminds me of the old Chevy truck I drove in high school a hundred and seventeen years ago.

Nope. Not my style. All though the color raised my eye brow for a moment!

It's not a truck, anyway. It's just a Prowler with a bed on it...just a big back seat, if you will.

2000 Silver Lightning on Order

 

From what I have read in Automotive News, this vehicle is perhaps an answer to the Dodge Power Wagon Retro vehicle, as well as a few other similar concept vehicles that were exhibited at the Detroit Auto Show.

To be honest, I really do not feel that GM is as committed to this type of concept vehicle as Ford and Chrysler are. Seems to me that rather a lot of the FMC amd Daimler/Chrysler vehicles actually see the light of day compared to very few of the GM concept stuff.

Just another nickel's worth.

I think the last vehicle that GM took from concept to production was the Riveria?
