This is one of the better concepts or ideas I've seen in awhile. Provided they can keep it affordable ...
I like it a lot. Would even push my girlfriend to get one in the future

I think it would sweap the mid size market, and appeal to diesel guys/gals. No one els would really compare atm.

I have not seen it



And it looks like it will stay that way.

He added an a to the url

181hp/369 tq seems rather low...

That things fuckin hot though

Diesel

The power in the day to day rpm range will be good and great down low. At WOT it won't be fast but a programmer can change that.

The V6 diesel in the ram 1500 makes 240hp and weighs 2k lbs more.

That thing is fucking ugly


Looks like a Sierra and a Tacoma fucked and then they aborted the baby

Hows the Colorado compare to the Ram 1500 in towing?
60hp and 2k lbs would equal them out in power at the least id think right

I have no idea what this concept could tow. It would be less than a half ton diesel but closer to a gas V8.

I doubt it would be close to the eco diesel. They use the air ride in all of those. Bumps the towing up pretty high for a half ton.

Cool concept other than its a pickup with a fucking spare tire taking up the entire bed.... might as well buy a jeep
