I’d prefer this over the way too long, unnecessarily 5 seated Jeep Gladiator. Probably won’t have the clutch catch fire either, which is a plus.

I’m with you on that one. I think the easiest place to start would be the Suburban/Tahoe/Escalade platform since it is already massive and covered in sheet metal. As for the third track, would it not be possible to recess it into the body, and have an electric door that closes over it flush with the body panels?…
Not quite the same manufacturer, but quite opposite.
Volvo: Swedish, 6 cyl gas, Awd, Automatic, Luxury-ish, Leather seats, seats 7, slightly offroady, dual climate, heated seats, some horsepower, corners like a fire truck
Mistubishi: Japanese, 3 cyl gas & GPL, Fwd, Manual, spartan as a grave, cloth seats, seats 1-2…
I applaud this level of craftsmanship and creativity. I’m not sure a 6.0L would have been my first engine choice. I know they can be bulletproofed, but that doesn’t really stop them from being high maintenance. If he didn’t seem like he only bleeds blue oval, I’d recommend a Ramcharger type project with a cummins.

I’ll wager $Texas, that I am correct.
I gave it a nice price, but I have to add a caveat. If it has the sealed transmission (5R55s), It is crack pipe. That sealed transmission was a nightmare in it’s early renditions. Even as late as 2006, it was highly problematic. I spent way too many hours of my life trying to coax some life back into them before the…
Looks like Citreon will be the only car to survive the great garbage avalanche of 2505. Brought to you by Carls Jr.
Found the inspiration...
To be honest, I would rather not have the hellcat engine. I know it has a ridiculous amount of power, but supercharger whine just seems a little out of place in the pickup world (racing excluded of course). I’d much prefer the howl of raw displacement power. The 425 HP 6.4L would be a welcome addition to the lineup,…
So Cadillac has finally made a nice interior just in time for it to be average at best. That said, my favorite is the minimalist Volvo interior. just my 7 million rubles (roughly 2 American cents).
I loathe the fact that I was born in the mid-1980's, meaning I am stuck with the millennial moniker. Did I really need to be lumped in with a bunch of white guys with viking beards, dreadlocks, and Thomas Edison’s clothes, who take 3 and half hours to brew a $20 deconstructed cappuccino?
If they make a true compact pickup, it should steal back the Ranger name. Since the “new” Ranger is so much larger than the original, lets call it, I don’t know, the F-100. Then all is well in FordLandia.
Sounds like GM overestimated HD gas engine sales and is now trying to spread the cost by shoehorning this beast into a cheap fleet sales vehicle so that the increased price penalty stays low and they can sell them in bulk. This stinks of Union engine plant interference to me. That said, I’m all for a big, 400+HP…
Here is how well Cadillac advertised that engine:
Article Title: The Makers of the New Stratos Might Just Save the Cadillac Blackwing Engine”
My Reaction: What the hell is the blackwing engine?
Here are the new naming conventions:
CUV - TMV (Trans-Minivan)
Wrangler/Bronco - Off”Bro”der
I believe that is called a Blacksmith
I’m sorry, but I cannot agree with the opinion of the writer. Throughout the entirety of the 1970's, I would deem Chrysler’s styling utterly conventional, and comparable to their cross town rivals. The Aztek set a bar for ugly that was not achieved again until the 2020 Chevrolet HD front end. I won’t speculate on the…
I agree to the extent that I do find the size of modern pickups to be ridiculous. The fact that people then feel the need to jack them 10 feet into the air seems like compensation over common sense. I pine for the days of the Dodge Dakota (1987-2004). It was the last truly correct sized pickup in my mind. It also had…
tripping balls sounds like a welcome alternative to the two other choices you have. The first is to be drunk or sober and surrounded by angry parents screaming at their kids to stop running around like idiots. The second is to be drunk or sober and be overwhelmed by the smell of bengay and cat piss soaked shalls while…
