I agree. With a few exceptions the GMC version has always been a better looking truck, at least to my eyes. In fact, until they killed off half their brands, Chevy versions of badge-engineered vehicles were always generally a little uglier than their counterparts

GMC > Chevy Trucks
Pontiacs > Chevy Cars

When you learn that the original Compass and Patrot were poorly-aged derivatives of the Mitsubishi GS (Lancer) platform, you’ll toss the Patriot over the side too.

I’m guessing the fording depth is somewhere between ‘mall puddle’ and ‘splashy fun time’

You spelled “hero” wrong

Low-redline straight six? Barely 100 horses but close to 200 ft-lb down low? Archaic early 80's engine management system?

Are we sure this isn’t an AMC 258?

As much as I like the ‘Rube Goldbergian’ nature of this idea, I’m pretty sure some sort of RFID/NFC type chip embedded into the roadway or on a signpost would be far faster, more reliable, and cost effective, and easier to update as the data changed.

General Bogdan?

I wonder if he knows the guy selling this totally-legit totally-maybe-not-a-scam Niki-Lauda-owned BMW M1? If I were going to sell one of the world’s most collectible cars, I’d treat it with more respect than a half paragraph ‘just seeing what’s out there’ craigslist ad.

“I think it’s a great show”

Wait, is that Defender 110 up front part of the rally? Please tell me where one acquires Defender 110's in any shape for $500.

Ricardo Montalban approves

Always looked to me like it was designed by Guigario. Anyone who says a Yugo is ugly clearly hates the entire 1980's

The ‘reason’ is pretty simple. The Subaru Forester turns 20 this year. 95% of those are in Portland Oregon.

I had a Ford Ranger that I put many many worry-free miles on. Trade for a Dodge Dakota that was decent until about 50K then fell apart a nickel and dime at a time. Went back to an 04 F150 that cost more in brakes and window regulators than I got for it on trade 7 years later. I decide to give Dodge another shot with a…

V8 sounds like a snarling dragon preparing to set the tempest ablaze

I’m waiting till Truckuary to get mine. Maybe Trarch.

Me either. Even on the Scrambler where it was factory it looks off. One of the defining design characteristics of a CJ is that round wheel opening. Shouldn’t be messed with.

I’m confused... are you saying it’s gross? Your post is ambiguous.
