I know it's a concept car, but even if it looks CLOSE to that, I'm sold.

Nothing says automotive enthusiast like blind brand loyalty.

I have to wonder the people who bash trucks have driven a modern day one. I love the 5th gen camaro but the interior does not hold a candle to the soft touch materials of some of the current modern day trucks.

Agreed man.





If I were to buy a truck it'd be this truck right here. It looks just straight awesome, no unnecessary 2500 or 3500 Diesel that I don't need at all, and it's not a practical eco-boost. Basically perfect to me.

That GM concept is pretty good looking, really wished they stuck with that vs what actually is. I loved my dad's 2009 Sierra, but that Atlas concept looks just plain beast.

My Camaro was a lemon. (Just like the previous two GM vehicles we bought).
I'll chalk it up to bad luck, as lots of other people are doing fine... But I'm not buying another GM for a while.

Not because I hate the company... I love the Camaro. But 3 strikes followed by poor service... And I'm taken my business elsewhere.

I got the Raptor... and am wayyyyy happier with it.

Our '04 Lariat has been virtually problem free and is in great shape. Raptor has been great too.

If you've had a brand new Ford lately and had a crappy experience, I completely understand the resentment... But the blind brand nazi's are straight up crazy.

Neighbors got two trucks like the dodge posted above, and would LOVE to trade me for my Raptor.

I guarantee if GM released the exact same truck (Raptor) and Ford never thought it up.... These same fanboys would be alllllll over it.

I'm happy to say I had the opportunity to purchase my favorite car (Camaro) and my favorite truck (Raptor).

I'd never give up the Raptor for another Camaro though. Not a chance. Even if the Camaro is more sexy.

Anyway.. fanboys suck.. The Camaro is sweet, Raptors sweet. As for the concept vehicles... unfortunately everybody always teases people with fantastic looking concept vehicles.... And then they shit the bed when it comes production time... We'll see how that truck looks when it goes live. The concept looks great though !

Back on the subject of Raptors... Not a fan of the "terrain" color at all.

I feel bad for the people that refuse to venture beyond one brand... due to that blind loyalty... Seriously... it's not war... you can take off your tinfoil hats, come outside and enjoy some nice cars/trucks with the rest of the auto enthusiasts... lol

Craptors are a fanboys vehicle (you desert running? I doubt it). Looks like the pot calling the kettle black if you ask me. See plenty of them off the side of the trails when we go out in our Jeep I paid about 1/3 the price for. Plus I get real posi-traction, better warranty and better fuel economy. Still close the door on that craptor and watch it wave at you. Thinest metal in the industry. Give me a Dodge Ram or a GM Product any day over a fanboy truck.

Love the raptor but the price point is too much for a lot of folks. Easily the coolest truck i had the pleasure of taking for a test drive. Dodge has there own version of the raptor called the ram runner but the kit will set you back 20k plus installation.
