That’s far from the ugliest GM has done. At least it had personality in spades.

Wonky!

You must be short - at 5' 11" I did not fit. Maybe with a thick mattress and the passenger seat down? But where do you put your stuff overnight then? I'm assuming two sleeping in the back.

But not everyone rock crawls, or even off-roads on more than a two track that a family sedan would have trouble on.

I believe it’s heavily influenced by cosmetics - stainless doesn’t rust, and motorcycle and bicycle rotors are both exposed to the weather and easily visible.

This reminds me of a story:

A friend and I actually have a running list of annoyances. Some of the things are pretty standard, but others are a bit more detailed, specific annoyances.

Are NASCAR body panels built to quick change like LMP cars? Or would even that take too much time?
