I just skim until I find power numbers or anything that seems to be somewhat useful.

I know sport trucks don't make much sense...but I don't care. I like them and there was a time when I wanted a Lightning pretty bad. No way this truck would make it to market with those wheels and the Carbon brakes though...not that I'd care about that.

I think it sounds like a cool truck, and looks nice from the side and rear, but not too crazy about the completely blacked out front with blue stripe...I'd have to see it in other colors.

Honestly, if GM wants to do another performance truck, they need to do another 'Xtreme" when the Colorado is launched, and drop either the 5.3 or 6.2 in that thing....or their TT LF3 V6 and call it a day. That would rock and should be much lighter than the Silverado.

I like it. I think the current Z71 grill looks more aggressive and would fit this truck better but this is an awesome concept. If the 6.2L makes it to the regular cab then this will have been a success.

This I don't need a carbon fiber everything to make the truck ultra expensive and out of reach for competing with ford or ram. 6.2L short box 4.10 gears and different gearing or a sport mode for the 6speed auto and it will be awesome.

GM build this truck! I bought a Ram R/T because you don't offer the best motor in the RCSB. The only change I would make is leave the trailer hitch on it.

This^

No need IMO for this truck to remove the trailer hitch, have carbon fiber parts and CC brakes.

Agreed with previous post. This is a great idea to compete with Dodge's power wagon. That baby provides cheap muscle at a great price. This truck looks like it will coast 40k. People will build their own cheaper than this. Great idea but poor execution.
